Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

STEPHENSON, Circuit Judge.

Defendant Allan Solomon asks this court to dismiss an indictment entered against him for distribution of approximately two ounces of cocaine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). Solomon claims that the actions of Drug Enforcement Agency officers improperly and prejudicially abrogated his Sixth Amendment right to effective assistance of counsel. His other primary claim is that the indictment is invalid as a violation of his constitutional and statutory rights to a speedy trial. 1 We affirm the district court and uphold the defendant’s conviction.
