1Opinion of the CourtWright, J.
NATURE OF CASE
The defendant, Melissa A. Meese, appeals from an order overruling her motion to discharge. The motion was based upon alleged violations of her due process and speedy trial rights due to an excessive preindictment delay that she alleges prevented her case from being transferred to juvenile court.
SCOPE OF REVIEW
