State v. Langen
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed Defendant's conviction of possession of a controlled substance and several misdemeanor offenses, holding that the circuit court did not err by denying Defendant's motion to dismiss for a violation of the 180-day speedy trial rule.
At issue on appeal was the circuit court's decision to exclude 102 days between the time of Defendant's first appearance and the trial in which a Minnehaha County warrant was outstanding. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) the circuit court properly determined that the delay caused by Defendant's absence from Minnehaha County was attributable to him; and (2) therefore, the circuit court properly excluded the 102 days in which the Minnehaha County warrant was outstanding.
