Washington Supreme Court January 7, 1999, No. 65454-9 (State v. Martin)

lead-opinion

Madsen, J.

Defendant Keith Martin contends that his case should have been dismissed due to the State’s failure to comply with his right to a speedy disposition, pursuant to RCW 13.40.130 and JuCR 7.12(a) or in the alternative that the court lost jurisdiction to sentence him because the hearing was scheduled more than 21 days after Defendant’s guilty plea.
