Question Presented (AI Summary)
Should this Court overturn Barker v. Wingo?
Question Presented (OCR Extract)
Question Presented For 800 years the English Common Law prohibited jailing a defendant for more than one year prior to their trial. Fifty years ago, this Court changed course and created a balancing test to determine if pretrial delay violated the constitution’s speedy trial guarantee. This balancing test has left the lower courts fractured, and the right to a speedy trial in shambles. Should this Court overturn Barker v. Wingo? 1
