What is the first appearance in NJ?
One of the purposes of the first court appearance is to determine if the defendant will be released before trial and what conditions (if any) will be imposed. The PSA is a risk assessment that evaluates the defendants risk of committing a new crime and the risk that they wont appear for trial.

The main reason for waiving the right to testify is because a guilty person does not wish to be cross-examined. They dont want to be cross-examined because a sharp prosecutor may be able to show that the guilty person is lying.
What is a 977 waiver of appearance?
Penal Code 977 PC allows defendants to waive their court appearance for misdemeanor cases. If you sign this waiver, you can appear by counsel only at most court appearances. This provision can help reduce the costs and stress of defending oneself against a misdemeanor charge.

If you do not wish to appear at a hearing and you want to request that the judge make a decision based solely on the evidence in your case, you or your representative, if you have one, must waive your right to personal appearance in writing.
Does filing a notice of appearance waive service?
Filing a notice of appearance of counsel does not, by itself, waive personal jurisdiction.
