(L. 1982 H.B. 1196 § 80, A.L. 1989 H.B. 408, A.L. 2009 H.B. 62 merged with H.B. 481)

(1991) Defendant's first trial resulted in a mistrial and second trial took place more than one hundred eighty days after defendant filed request for speedy trial, therefore statute was complied with, because defendant was "brought to trial" within the one hundred eighty days. State v. Clark, 809 S.W.2d 139 (Mo.App.E.D.).
