Re: how long does it take

You should be discussing this delay with your attorney. If you do not have an attorney then take advantage of the delay to find and retain an attorney. Your time waiver can be withdrawn. The court then has 10 days in which to bring the matter to trial. However, you should carefully consider the all aspects of your case before taking any action.
