ERICKSON, Justice.
This appeal involves factual and legal issues that are identical to those raised in P. V. v. District Court, Colo., 609 P.2d 110 (1980). In that case we held that a trial court conducting a juvenile proceeding is bound by the same statutory and constitutional speedy trial requirements that are applicable in adult proceedings. See, section 18-1-405(1), C.R.S. 1973 (now in 1978 Repl. Vol. 8); Crim.P. 48(b)(1); Colo.Const. Art. II, Sec. 3; U.S. Const. Art. VI.
Accordingly, we remand to the trial court to determine whether the charges against the appellant should be dismissed in accordance with our decision in P. V. v. District Court.
