Staff Report//March 9, 2023//
Listen to this articleWhere a juvenile argued that his federal juvenile delinquency proceedings should have been dismissed because he was not afforded a speedy trial as required by the Federal Juvenile Delinquency Act, the juvenile waived his right to appeal any speedy trial violation as part of his plea agreement, and the judgment is affirmed since his sentence was not plainly unreasonable.
Judgment is affirmed.
