2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Buckley · State v. Hoffman“"If the State is free to commence repeated prosecutions for the same offense following undue delay in going to trial, subject only to the running of the statute of limitations, there is nothing to deter delays at prosecution’s convenience in pushing forward to trial, and defendant’s constitutional right to a speedy trial is rendered largely meaningless.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage“Application of the reprosecution language of section 795.5 to any dismissal under section 795.2 would drain that statutory enactment of its force and effectiveness in protecting the accused's right to a speedy trial.”
