BOOTH, J., specially

concurring.

I concur in the result of this opinion under the law as stated in King v. State, *66803 So.2d 889, 391 (Fla. 3d DCA 1974) and State v. Kutz, 354 So.2d 890 (Fla. 4th DCA 1978). Once a continuance has been properly granted to either the State or the defendant, the quantitative provisions of the speedy trial rule no longer apply and the right to a speedy trial is governed by constitutional safeguards.
