Got me thinking what exactly is considered "the right to a speedy trial?"

The conditions seem to be...


Criminal defendants have the right to a speedy trial. In Barker v. Wingo, 407 U.S. 514 (1972), the Supreme Court laid down a four-part case-by-case balancing test for determining whether the defendant's speedy trial right has been violated. The four factors are:

1: Length of delay. A delay of a year or more from the date on which the speedy trial right "attaches" (the date of arrest or indictment, whichever first occurs) was termed "presumptively prejudicial," but the Court has never explicitly ruled that any absolute time limit applies.

2: Reason for the delay. The prosecution may not excessively delay the trial for its own advantage, but a trial may be delayed to secure the presence of an absent witness or other practical considerations (e.g., change of venue).

3: Time and manner in which the defendant has asserted his right. If a defendant agrees to the delay when it works to his own benefit, he cannot later claim that he has been unduly delayed.

4: Degree of prejudice to the defendant which the delay has caused.

In Strunk v. United States, 412 U.S. 434 (1973), the Supreme Court ruled that if the reviewing court finds that a defendant's right to a speedy trial was violated, then the indictment must be dismissed and/or the conviction overturned. The Court held that, since the delayed trial is the state action which violates the defendant's rights, no other remedy would be appropriate. Thus, a reversal or dismissal of a criminal case on speedy trial grounds means that no further prosecution for the alleged offense can take place.

If I'm not mistaken Ammon has asked to proceed post-haste. Therefore the prosecution would have to begin trial within a years time unless conditions allowed an extension?

Rand Paul, Cliven Bundy are ‘in tune with each other’?

07/01/15 08:42 AM—Updated 07/01/15 01:06 PM



“In general, I think we’re in tune with each other. I don’t think we need to ask Washington, D.C. for this land. It’s our land,” Bundy told the AP after his meeting with Paul.
Some of the initial reports suggest their “meeting” was fairly innocuous, with Bundy simply attending a Rand Paul event in Nevada. Candidates can’t always control who shows up at a gathering open to the public, so it wouldn’t necessarily be the senator’s fault if Bundy appeared at a campaign Q&A session.

But according to Bundy, there’s far more to it.


The right-wing rancher, who doesn’t even recognize the legitimacy of the United States government, told Politico that he had a private, 45-minute discussion (http://www.politico.com/story/2015/06/rand-paul-cliven-bundy-meeting-119576.html) with the Kentucky Republican. In fact, according to Bundy, Paul hosted the Q&A, after which Bundy claims to have been “escorted by Paul’s aides to a back room where he and the Republican 2016 contender spoke for approximately 45 minutes.”

January


When Cliven Bundy started his showdown with the Bureau of Land Management, he quickly attracted a slew of high-profile backers (http://www.thewire.com/politics/2014/04/a-list-of-cliven-bundys-supporters-now-that-we-know-hes-a-pro-slavery-racist/361154/): Republican Senators Dean Heller, Ted Cruz, and Rand Paul; Texas Governor Rick Perry; and Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, who has since become governor. But Bundy’s hand was weak—after all, anyone who claims he isn’t governed by the Constitution and refuses to pay land fees for decades has a weak claim, to say nothing of the jarring image of armed men holding off law enforcement.http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/01/the-decline-of-the-bundy-rebellion/423693/

Standoffs and occupations in the United States through the years (http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/04/us/standoffs-occupations-through-u-s-history/)CNN-Jan 4, 2016
... the Bureau of Land Management, which said Bundy illegally tended ... Ted Cruz of Texas and Rand Paul of Kentucky, flocked to his defense.





more recently in February Rand's name is still appearing as a supporter on the issue


Many Republican officials, including Sens. Dean Heller (Nev.) and Rand Paul (Ky.), applauded Bundy and his makeshift militia — Heller called them “patriots.” The group also won praise from the conservative media.

according to Bundy, there’s far more to it.

The right-wing rancher, who doesn’t even recognize the legitimacy of the United States government, told Politico that he had a private, 45-minute discussion (http://www.politico.com/story/2015/06/rand-paul-cliven-bundy-meeting-119576.html) with the Kentucky Republican. In fact, according to Bundy, Paul hosted the Q&A, after which Bundy claims to have been “escorted by Paul’s aides to a back room where he and the Republican 2016 contender spoke for approximately 45 minutes.”

A Paul campaign spokesperson denied this version of events, though the denial didn’t specifically address whether or not the senator met specifically with Bundy. Paul spokesman Sergio Gor told (http://www.politico.com/story/2015/06/rand-paul-cliven-bundy-meeting-119576.html?hp=r3_3) Politico, “There were no scheduled meetings at Senator Paul’s stop in Mesquite. He spoke to many people who came to this public event, none for 45 minutes and none planned.”

But that doesn’t fully address the situation. Does this mean Rand Paul had an unscheduled meeting with Bundy? Maybe the two met privately, but their discussion was briefer than Bundy claims?

I reached out to a campaign spokesperson for clarification, but I have not yet heard back.

For his part, the rancher added (http://www.politico.com/story/2015/06/rand-paul-cliven-bundy-meeting-119576.html?hp=r3_3) he only expected to briefly exchange pleasantries with the senator, and he was pleasantly surprised to have a lengthy, substantive conversation with the GOP presidential candidate.

We don't deserve men like Bundy in this country. They are far to good for most of us.
