P. v. Pitt
The People appeal from the trial courts decisions to grant defendant George Pitts motion to dismiss for lack of a speedy trial and to deny the Peoples motion for a continuance. The main issue before us is whether there was sufficient evidence to support the trial courts finding of prejudice from the delay in prosecution. The People contend that the trial court abused its discretion by relying on insufficient and incompetent evidence to support its finding of actual prejudice. Additionally, the People claim the trial court abused its discretion by refusing to allow them reasonably adequate time to respond. Court disagree with both contentions, and we affirm.
