180.30 Proceedings upon felony complaint; waiver of hearing; action to
           be taken.
If the defendant waives a hearing upon the felony complaint, the court
  must either:
1.  Order that the defendant be held for the action of a grand jury of
  the  appropriate  superior  court  with respect to the charge or charges
  contained in the felony  complaint.    In  such  case,  the  court  must
  promptly   transmit  to  such  superior  court  the  order,  the  felony
  complaint, the supporting depositions and all other pertinent documents.
  Until such papers are received by the  superior  court,  the  action  is
  deemed to be still pending in the local criminal court; or
2.    Make  inquiry,  pursuant  to  section 180.50, for the purpose of
  determining whether the felony complaint  should  be  dismissed  and  an
  information, a prosecutor's information or a misdemeanor complaint filed
  with the court in lieu thereof.
