OPINION OF THE COURT
Memorandum.
Ordered that the judgment of conviction is reversed, on the law, so much of the order dated November 10, 2009 as denied the branch of defendant’s motion seeking to dismiss the accusatory instrument on statutory speedy trial grounds is vacated, defendant’s motion is granted, and the accusatory instrument is dismissed.
