JOHNSON v. STATE

305 A.2d 622 (1973)

William T. JOHNSON, Defendant Below, Appellant, v. STATE of Delaware, Plaintiff Below, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Delaware.

Certiorari Dismissed June 25, 1973.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Angelo Falasca, Asst. Public Defender, Wilmington, for appellant.

H. Murray Sawyer, Deputy Atty. Gen., Wilmington, for the State.

Before WOLCOTT, C. J., and CAREY and HERRMANN, JJ., sitting.

Certiorari Dismissed June 25, 1973. See 93 S.Ct. 3072.

WOLCOTT, Chief Justice.

Johnson pled guilty to a charge of assault and battery in the Superior Court on April 4, 1968, and was sentenced four years later on April 28, 1972. He now seeks to have his sentence vacated, claiming that two years of the delay (between 1968 and 1970) denied him his Sixth Amendment right to a speedy trial.
