My lawyer requested a delay in my case without my authoriziation. This resulted in a four month delay. As a result the speedy trial clock was stopped for a military court martial.
According to the UCMJ and applicipal regulations it was not his job or duty to request this delay. He just did it.
As a result the 120 day speedy trial clock started on 12 April 04 and I'm still waiting for my trial set for Dec 14. Out of all this time between then and now I have not requested but 10 days of delay for a expert witness.
What what recourse do I have to fix this problem? Any suggestions? As a note any trial decisions we now make a memo for record.
