MURPHY, Justice.
This is an appeal from an order quashing a writ of habeas corpus and remanding the petitioner to the custody of the sheriff of Washington County. The petitioner is held pending extradition to Wisconsin on process issued by that state. His contention is that a delay of approximately 6 years to commence prosecution of a criminal charge pending against him in Wisconsin has deprived him of his constitutional right to a speedy trial.
