"What is the balance of the defendant's right and need to prepare for trial and, on the other hand, the public's exceedingly and unprecedently strong interest in a speedy trial?" Gaston said. Trump, she said, is accused of "attempting to overturn an election and disenfranchise millions."
The Constitution provides that every person accused of a crime must receive a fair, speedy, and public trial, and these requirements generally are observed. In the latter part of the year, approximately 29 persons were being held on "remand" (detention pending trial or further court action). The length of remand varies according to offense and charges; persons may be held for days, weeks, or months.
The 1966 Employment of Children Ordinance outlaws slavery, servitude, and forced labor, and prescribes the minimum legal working age, which is 14 years. The Labor Ministry relies heavily on school truant officers and the community affairs division to monitor compliance, which they do effectively. The law mandates compulsory education up to the age of 16. Although the law does not specifically address bonded labor, it has not been a problem in practice (see Section 6.c.).
Ignoring, for the time being, any available case precedent, common sense suggests that the limitations period should not be tolled during a plaintiff's exercise of optional union remedies. Allowing such a result would involve granting plaintiffs power to control 301 litigation to a degree not likely contemplated when the statutes were enacted. That is, a plaintiff could opt for an internal procedure insufficient to conclude in complete relief, and dependant upon the outcome, either relitigate the entire dispute or simply seek a judicial determination of the issue omitted from the union proceeding. Obviously, such a system is contrary to a policy favoring speedy resolution of labor disputes. Yet precedent does exist that makes resolution of this issue difficult.
In Dunleavy, supra, the Sixth Circuit allowed the tolling of the statute of limitations, during the pendency of intra-union proceedings, in an action involving the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA), 29 U.S.C. 411 et seq. While comparisons are made in Dunleavy between the LMRDA and 301, this Court believes the most relevant finding in Dunleavy involved the policy supporting self-governance. The Dunleavy dispute concerned alleged violations of the Internal Union Constitution and Local Union By- *1082 Laws. In deciding what it termed a close question, the court concluded that as between the need for speedy resolution of labor matters and the promotion of internal grievance procedures, the internal remedy policy controlled given the facts of the case. "The need for self-governance is most clearly in focus where, as in the present case, the complaint alleges wrongdoing in internal affairs." Dunleavy, 814 F.2d at 1090.
No allegations of wrongdoing in internal affairs exist in the case at hand. The focus of the dispute concerns the collective bargaining agreement defining the union and employer's relationship. While it is conceivable that the decision to drop a grievance involves internal union affairs, such a decision is inevitably based on a union's interpretation of facts in light of a labor contract. This situation is therefore unlike that found in Dunleavy. Given this, and the absence of any binding authority to the contrary, the Court holds that the statute of limitations in hybrid 301 actions is not tolled during the resolution of optional internal union proceedings.
On February 7, 1964, following a report by the Budget Bureau that theJohnson administration did not object to the establishing legislation,Senator Hruska predicted speedy congressional approval before the falladjournment. Unlike H.R. 6149, S. 1481 was blessed with a broad base ofsupport. Joining Senator Hruska as co-sponsors were Carl Curtis(R.-Nebr.), Milward Simpson (R.-Wyo.), Gordon Allott and Petere Dominick(R.-Colo.), Gale McGee (D.-Wyo.), and Karl Mundt (R.-S.Dak.).

In March, the Secretary ofthe Interior presented each member of the Nebraska CongressionalDelegation and other sponsors of the bills copies of the Department'sfull report on the proposal. [69] Hruskaconfided to Margaret Cook confidence that his bill would pass the Senateby Easter, and clear the House by early summer. [70]
