Jurisdiction: CT

Bluebook Citation: Conn. P.B. 43-41

missal If the defendant is not brought to trial within the applicable time limit set forth in Sections 43-39 through 43-40A, and, absent good cause shown, a trial is not commenced within thirty days of the filing of a motion for speedy trial by the defendant at any time after such time limit has passed, the information shall be dismissed with prejudice, on motion of the defendant filed after the expiration of such thirty day period. For the purpose of this section, good cause consists of any one of the reasons for delay set forth in Section 43-40 or 43- 40A. When good cause for delay exists, the trial shall commence as soon as is reasonably possi- ble. Failure of the defendant to file a motion to dismiss prior to the commencement of trial shall constitute a waiver of the right to dismissal under these rules. (P.B. 1978-1997, Sec. 884.) (Amended June 10, 2022, to take effect Jan. 1, 2023.)
