Description

1. Criminal Law -- Three-Term Rule Under the provisions of Code, 62-3-21, as amended, the three unexcused regular terms of
court that must pass before an accused can be discharged from further prosecution are regular terms occurring subsequent to
the ending of the term at which the indictment was returned. The term at which the indictment was returned can not be counted
as one of the three terms. 2. Criminal Law -- Continuance -- Three-Term Rule Any term at which a defendant procures a continuance of a trial on his
own motion after an indictment is returned, or otherwise prevents a trial from being held, is not counted as one of the three
terms in favor of discharge from prosecution under the provisions of Code, 62-3-21, as amended.
