OPINION
JOHNSON, Judge:
Robert Schneider has appealed his conviction for escape in the second degree (Kentucky Revised Statutes 520.020) and for being a persistent felony offender in the first degree (KRS 532.080). Following a jury trial, Schneider was sentenced to prison for a term of ten years. In this appeal, Schneider argues that his prosecution should have been dismissed due to the Commonwealth’s failure to try him within the 180-day time limit set forth in the Interstate Agreement on Detainers Act (IAD) (KRS 440.450) We disagree and affirm Schneider’s conviction.
