OPINION OF THE COURT

Bellacosa, J.

The legal question common to these three cases arises out of the interpretation and practical interplay between CPL 190.50 (5) and 180.80. CPL 190.50 (5) affords individuals preliminarily accused of crimes the right to testify before a Grand Jury weighing the criminal charges against them provided that timely notice is given by the accused. CPL 180.80 requires the release of individuals being held in pretrial detention pending action of a Grand Jury after 120 or 144 hours of custody unless, among other neutralizing circumstances, an indictment has been voted.
