Taylor's trial delayed yet again

Hey, do you guys think we should trade Ramsey......

It's ok. I've jury duty for this case. My job pays me for the day off and I get paid by the court. I win. Taylor wins.

Sincerely,

Serious question: If the guy on trial was in jail instead of out on bail could the procecution keep asking for a delay ad infinitum?

Actually, since every individual has a right to a speedy trial, regardless of whether he is in jail or out on bail, the analysis doesn't change. If ST's attorneys wanted to push this case, they could. I'm sure any extensions they are seeking are being agreed to by ST's attorneys as well. There's really not any reason to deny the prosecution's request because at this point they've already got everything they need anyway. The longer this drags on, the more likely you are giving the two sides to come to a plea agreement (or the prosecution to decide to drop the case outright).

I think the only way that Dade County saves face is by dropping the charges.
