Description
This is the second appeal concerning the January 21, 1972, arrest of defendant-appellant Jerry L. Hobson for illegal possession of drugs. See: State v. Hobson, 95 Idaho 920, 523 P.2d 523 (1974) (hereinafter Hobson I). On this appeal appellant argues that: (1) he was arrested without probable cause; (2) his consent to a police search of his motel room was involuntary; and (3) he was denied the right to a speedy trial. In light of our Disposition of the case we need only discuss the last contention. On that basis we reverse. In Hobson I an order of the district court suppressing evidence obtained in a search of appellant's automobile and motel room was reversed and the case was remanded for trial. Remittitur was issued on July 3, 1974, following denial of a petition for rehearing. On September 4, 1974, two months after the remittitur in Hobson I, appellant moved to dismiss the information, asserting a denial of his right to a speedy trial pursuant to I.C. § 19-3501. No hearing was held on this motion until March 20, 1975, when the motion to dismiss was denied by the district court. Trial was held on June 9, 1975, and a jury found appellant guilty on June 11, 1975.
