    Speedy Trial in Speeding case ?

    2/12/20 I was (on the ticket) "arrested" for speeding 18 miles over the speed limit. I was given a court date of 3/24. It was changed to 6/9 at 0930 due to COVID. I showed up and was told it got changed to 9/8/20. I asked what formal notice I would be given ? They said mail. AND I did get a...
