Opinion:
OPINION OF THE COURT
Order reversed and the indictment dismissed. Since the facts underlying appellant's speedy trial claim are concededly indistinguishable from the facts which we deemed sufficient to support such a claim in People v Moore (47 NY2d 872), the result should be the same.
Concur: Chief Judge Cooke and Judges Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones, Wachtler, Fuchsberg and Meyer.
