Fallen v. State
Annotate this Case
Defendant was arrested on September 11, 2007 for murder and his motion to dismiss was filed on August 27, 2010, almost three years later. At issue was whether the trial court properly denied defendant's motion to dismiss the charges against him for a constitutional speedy trial violation. The court held that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying defendant's motion to dismiss the indictment based on a violation of his constitutional speedy trial rights where, under the circumstances, defendant had not shown that he was prejudiced.
