Steve --- Apart from the numbers themselves, what gets my knickers in a twist, as our British cousins would put it, is the seeming insistence of the majority to arrogantly take a legal "button" (the actual case in front of it) and sew a coat ("rule for the ages") to it. In your recollection, any other Court(s) similarly inclined to "overreach" come to mind ? Also, been meaning to ask (though off topic here) --- from whence does the so-called "public" right to a speedy trial derive ?
