RIVERHEAD – Although both sides agreed to an adjournment in the trial of a man charged with infecting his wife with HIV, Suffolk County Court Judge James Hudson re-examined the authority on the timely disposition of felony indictments to determine when justice delayed becomes an injustice.
Judge Hudson ordered jury selection in People v. Lindenbaum, 1726-01, to begin May 21, just seven months after the indictment was handed down. His decision is in line with a recent push to reduce a perceived backlog in the Suffolk County Court’s caseload. (The decision will be published in tomorrow’s Law Journal.)
