This U.S Supreme court ruling held that an 8 1/2 year delay in between indictment and arrest constituted a 6th Amendment violation of his right to a speedy trial because: 1.) The government was negligent in failing to prosecute diligently/find Doggett, who was living under his true name; and 2.) Doggett was allegedly "unaware" of the pendency of the criminal indictment.
