Lawton Constitution: Florida jail reforms and speedy trial ruling
A Florida Supreme Court decision spurs jail condition reforms and faster court action. The ruling mandates trials within 90 days for misdemeanors and 180 days for felonies, with speedy-trial demands to be heard within 60 days, replacing older longer timelines. It criticizes crowded dockets and cites a case linked to youth death as context for reform.
