PERRYMAN v. THE SUPERIOR COURT OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY
Defendants' successful motion to quash a jury venire and begin jury selection again with a new panel of prospective jurors was not a "mistrial" motion. Despite the defendants' initially having labeled it as such, and, because the prosecution was not prejudiced, it did not trigger a new 60-day period in which defendants could be "brought to trial" under Penal Code Sec. 1382(a)(2).
