People v. Thill

Decision Date24 February 1981
Parties, 420 N.E.2d 95 The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Appellant, v. Edward THILL, Respondent.
CourtNew York Court of Appeals Court of Appeals
OPINION OF THE COURT MEMORANDUM.

The order of the Appellate Division 75 A.D.2d 709, 427 N.Y.S.2d 125, should be reversed and the case remitted to that court for a review of the facts.

By pleading guilty, defendant waived his statutory right to assert that he was entitled to dismissal because the People were not ready for trial within the time required by CPL 30.30. (See People v. Clary, 52 N.Y.2d 1023, 438 N.Y.S.2d 298, 420 N.E.2d 96; People v. Friscia, 51 N.Y.2d 845, 433 N.Y.S.2d 754, 413 N.E.2d 1168.) He cannot, therefore, test the validity of that claim on appeal.

We reject defendant's argument that the due process clauses of the Federal and State Constitutions require a contrary conclusion.

COOKE, C. J., and JASEN, GABRIELLI, JONES, WACHTLER, FUCHSBERG and MEYER, JJ., concur.

Order reversed and case remitted to the Appellate Division, Fourth Department, for further proceedings in accordance with the memorandum herein.

In that decision the Court determined that a plea of guilty by a defendant who had previously made a speedy trial motion would effectively waive the right to a dismissal; see also People v. Thill, 52 N.Y.2d 1020, 438 N.Y.S.2d 297, 420 N.E.2d 95 and People v.
