Glenn Stewart was indicted on several counts of aggravated child molestation OCGA § 16-6-4 c and child molestation OCGA § 16-6-4 a. He subsequently filed a motion to dismiss the indictment, alleging a violation of his constitutional right to a speedy trial. The trial court entered an order denying Stewart’s motion, from which he appeals. We discern no error and affirm. We review a “denial of a motion to dismiss the indictment on speedy trial grounds for abuse of discretion . . . .” Citations omitted. Ruffin v. State , 284 Ga. 52, 65 3 663 SE2d 189 2008.

The record shows that Stewart was arrested on December 16, 2004. Stewart posted bond and was released from custody on March 2, 2005, and has not been in custody since. On or around February 1, 2006, the Grand Jury returned an indictment charging Stewart with two counts of aggravated child molestation. Stewart was arraigned on May 16, 2006. Stewart’s attorney was on a leave of absence from July to October 2006.
