A: The State is required by the speedy trial rule in Florida to bring your case to trial within 90 days after your arrest. It may be to your advantage to waive speedy trial if more time is needed to prepare your case. But many times, your lawyer can force a good result in your case by refusing to waive speedy trial. The decision whether to waive speedy trial is a matter of strategy that should be considered carefully by an experienced DUI lawyer.
