Motion

His first appearance in court in Idaho was January 5, 2023.

On January 12, 2023, Mr. Koberger filed a Notice of Appearance, Request for Timely, Preliminary Hearing, Motion for Bail Reduction, and Notice of Hearing, which contained a demand for speedy trial pursuant to the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution, Article 1, Section 7, 13, and 18 of the Idaho Constitution, and IC, Section 19-3501.

While Mr. Kohlberger prepared for a preliminary hearing, the state convened a grand jury on May 12th, and by May 16th, 2023, it had an indictment for Mr. Kohlberger on four charges of murder in the first degree and a count of burglary.

This court arraigned Mr. Kohlberger on May 22, 2023.

This was recently recognized in State v. Vallow.

In that matter, it was recognized that within the time limits required for a speedy trial, neither the state nor the defense could appropriately function and a just outcome be reached.
