New York v. Hill, 528 U.S. 110 (1999), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court unanimously decided that scheduling a trial date outside the 180-day period of the Interstate Agreement on Detainers Act (IAD) by a defender's counsel does not permit the defendant from seeking dismissal on the grounds that the case did not happen in time.[1] [2] The trial court declared that the defense counsel's agreement to hold the trial after that period waivered Hill's IAD rights.[1]
Background
[edit]The New York Court of Appeals ordered a detainer against Hill, and, after requesting its disposition, he returned to New York to face robbery and murder charges.[1] The defense lawyer ordered the trial date outside of the designated 180-day period of the IAD and dismissed the indictment on the premises that the trial period had already ended.[2]
