The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Matta-Ballesteros, 72 F.3d 136 (9th Cir. 1995):

A balancing of four factors governs whether a constitutional violation has occurred: (1) the length of the delay; (2) the reason for the delay; (3) prejudice to the defendant; and (4) the defendant's assertion of his speedy trial right. Dogget v. United States, 505 U.S. 647, 651 (1992).
