p. 679
The People of the State of New York ex rel. Robert LeMon, Appellant, v. Vincent R. Mancusi, as Superintendent of Attica Correctional Facility, Respondent.
Submitted September 11, 1972;
decided September 28, 1972.
Nathaniel A. Barrell for motion.
Louis J. Lefkowits, Attorney-General (Anthony M. Leone of counsel), opposed.

Motion denied. Post-judgment relief in a collateral proceeding is not available to assert denial of the right to a speedy trial, especially so when the issue was never raised at or before trial (People v. White, 2 N Y 2d 220 , 223-224; People ex rel. Lee v. Jackson, 285 App. Div. 33 , affd. 309 N. Y. 676 , cert. den. 350 U. S. 983 ; People v. Hunter, 30 Misc 2d 661 , 662; cf. People v. Piscitello, 7 N Y 2d 387 , 388; see, generally, Barker v. Wingo, 407 U. S. 514 , for the significance of raising the issue at or before trial).
