What is the name of your state? Hawaii
Long story short I was the subject of an undercover sting operation by the liquor commission. I checked the customers ID but it was a fake and the liquor commission worker botched my ticket when giving it to me. Wrote wrong social, misspelled the offense, and did not include any details not even a report number. The case was dismissed without prejudice so that it could be refiled with correct information. My attorney has advised me to kindly accept the summons from my process server when they catch up to me but for over a month now they've only called a handful of times to tell me to come to their office. They showed up at my house once when I wasn't home. My attorneys' office advised me to let it go for as long as possible in hopes the case would be dropped due to right to speedy trial, but everything I've read online states that it is does not behoove me to wait. I can't find a description of how long "right to speedy trial" is considered in a case like this, and I have tried to discuss the logic behind this method with my attorney but he hasn't called me back. I don't want to be an annoying client, but I took a loan out to afford his services and feel I should at least get a call back. I've had to work harder than the liquor commission to work towards my own prosecution as they seemingly admitted I was the only fish they caught in their net so-to-speak and it's worth their efforts to prosecute since sting operations cost the county money and they need to have something to show for it, but I don't feel I should go out of my way to make the process servers life easier but I am definitely not avoiding them. How long should I keep waiting?
