How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that, “in balancing all of the reasons for the delay that [we]re attributable to the State against those that [we]re attributable to the defendant[ ], this Barker factor ultimately remains neutral”
- determining that the 16-month delay after arrest in asserting the right to speedy trial weighed against the appellant
- discussing the conflict-of-interest issue that arose in the Circuit Defender’s Office following the arrest of the Appellant and his accomplices
- defendant waited 16 months after arrest and waited nine months after the appointment of new counsel to raise speedy-trial claim
- “Because the attorney is the defendant’s agent when acting, or failing to act, in furtherance of the litigation, delay caused by the defendant’s counsel is charged against the defendant[.]”
- prejudice factor does not weigh in the defendants’ favor where “no witnesses have died or disappeared; there is no evidence that witnesses have lost their memories; and the defense strategy remained unchanged”
