Chad and some friends broke into a government building and ruined several priceless paintings. Chad was arrested and charged with a federal crime. He refused to speak to the police. Once he was arrested, he refused to speak to his court-appointed lawyer. Chad waited for three years before his case is heard by a judge. When he got his day in court, Chad claimed that his rights had been violated. How could he use the U.S. Constitution to support his claim?

The Sixth Amendment's "Speedy Trial" clause gives the accused the right to a speedy trial.

Chad is likely to prevail on a claim as three years is unlikely to be found to be a reasonable timeframe to wait for trial.
