1. “[A] motion in limine should be granted only when the trial court finds two factors are present (1) the material or evidence in question will be inadmissible at a trial under the rules of evidence; and (2) the mere offer, reference, or statements made during trial concerning the material will tend to prejudice the jury.”

2. “The burden is on the State to provide a defendant with a speedy trial.

Where the State is unable to do either, this factor must be weighed against the State.”
