PEOPLE v. STUART (2019)

Supreme Court, Appellate Term, New York.

The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Lance STUART, Defendant-Appellant.

570763 /17

Decided: April 11, 2019

PRESENT: Shulman, P.J., Ling-Cohan, Edmead, JJ.

Judgment of conviction (Joanne B. Watters, J.), rendered October 25, 2017, affirmed.

Defendant's guilty plea constituted a forfeiture of his statutory speedy trial claims (see People v. O'Brien, 56 NY2d 1009 [1982] ), as well as his related claim that the court improvidently denied his request for an adjournment to research a legal issue related to the speedy trial motion. In any event, the claims are without merit.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
