WHAT IS MY RIGHT TO A SPEEDY TRIAL?
Generally you must be brought to trial within 60 days of your arraignment. You can waive your right to a speedy trial in order to have more time to prepare your defense. The prosecution can also request a continuance past the 60 days but good cause must be shown why the prosecution is making the request. After a hearing on the matter the Judge will determine if the trial should be continued.
