2. “I dissent because the majority applies a judicial rule of procedure in a manner that eviscerates the statute of limitations enacted by the Legislature. The majority's decision adds to a line of precedents from this Court that has created and continually expanded a substantive right which has no basis in the original language of the rule itself or in Florida's statutes and is not mandated by the State or Federal Constitutions.”

   1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the dissent
   e.g. Luis Born-Suniaga v. State of Florida

3. “Under the speedy trial rule, the defendant, upon being arrested, has no obligation under the rule to further assert his right to be brought to trial unless he first waives his right. The [Andrew] Williams decision correctly points out that it is the State’s responsibility to bring those arrested to trial within the times provided in the speedy trial rule.”
