L CrRLJ 3.3
(h) Continuances.
(3) Any requests for continuance, made orally in open
court or in writing by Defendant’s counsel or the
Defendant, shall require the Court to reinform the
Defendant of his or her speedy trial rights before
the motion is granted or denied. The Court shall
not grant a motion for continuance beyond the
Defendant’s originally calculated speedy trial
time, unless the Defendant (or Defendant’s
counsel, upon counsel’s representation that the
Defendant has been informed of his or her speedy
trial rights and has authorized counsel to waive
them) signs a Waiver of Speedy Trial upon a form
supplied by the Court. The Defendant or counsel
must understand, before signing the waiver, that
the Court will be waiving the Defendant’s speedy
trial rights to a date certain, upon which date
the applicable 60 day or 90 day period will begin
to run anew.
