Description

Petitioners, criminal defendants in underlying proceedings before the City Court of Tucson, seek special action relief from the orders of the respondent magistrate denying their motions to dismiss on the grounds that A.R.S. § 28-692(A)(2) is unconstitutional. Because this is a matter of statewide importance and because the issues relate to legal questions as opposed to controverted issues of fact, we accept jurisdiction. University of Arizona Health Sciences Center v. Superior Court, 136 Ariz. 579, 667 P.2d 1294 (1983). Additionally, a "speedy decision will serve the public interest." Fuenning v. Superior Court, 139 Ariz. 590, 593, 680 P.2d 121, 124 (1983). For the reasons stated below, however, we find the statute withstands constitutional scrutiny and, therefore, deny relief.
