Criminal – Speedy Trial Act – Bank Fraud – Dismissal With Prejudice
By Deborah Elkins
Published: December 8, 2008
Although a Roanoke U.S. District Court thinks the bank fraud and conspiracy charges against defendant are serious, the 229-day violation of the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3162, is a significant delay that has prejudiced defendant, and the charges are dismissed with prejudice.
