People v. Love
California Court of Appeal
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion
CORRIGAN, J.
Defendant, while out of custody, waived her right to have a preliminary hearing within 10 and 60 days of her plea. She failed to appear for a setting conference and was arrested on a bench warrant. Her preliminary hearing occurred 15 court days after her reappearance in custody. The magistrate dismissed the complaint, finding the preliminary hearing untimely. He interpreted Penal Code section 859b 1 to require that a preliminary hearing be held within 10 court days of a defendant’s appearance in custody. Because the statute contains no such requirement, we reverse.
