The People of
the State of New York, Plaintiff,
against Mamadou B., Defendant. |
The defendant moves this court to dismiss various charges against him as facially insufficient, to find the People's statement of readiness illusory, and ultimately to dismiss the case in its entirety pursuant to CPL §§ 30.30 (1) (b) and 170.30 (1) (e).
The People correctly concede that several of the charges against the defendant were facially insufficient. The People also concede that their statement of readiness was therefore invalid (see CPL 30.30 [5-a]), and, therefore, that the defendant was denied his right to a speedy trial (CPL 30.30 [1] [b]). In this case, in which the defendant is charged with an A misdemeanor and no felonies, the People must state their readiness for trial within ninety days of the commencement of the criminal action (CPL 30.30 [1] [b]). The People did not do so, and the defendant's motion to dismiss is therefore granted (CPL 170.30 [1] [e]).
This constitutes the decision and order of this court.
