Summary
The Court affirmed the Appellate Division’s order, holding that the defendant’s claim that his rights under CPL 30.30 were violated was forfeited by his guilty plea, and that there was no violation of his constitutional right to a speedy trial. The decision relied on the precedents People v Friscia and People v Taranovich. No new procedural rules were created.
