Superior Court of Pennsylvania

1Opinion of the Court

SPAETH, Judge:

This appeal is from judgment of sentence for attempted burglary. 1 Appellant was also charged with, and a jury found him guilty of, criminal conspiracy 2 and possession of an instrument of crime. 3 He argues that all of the charges should have been dismissed because he was not brought to trial as speedily as required by Pa.R.Crim.R. 1100. In the alternative, he argues that he should only have been sentenced for possession of an instrument of crime, and that the lower court should have “arrest[ed] judgment” on the other charges. 4 We affirm.
