a speedy trial, (3) whether the amount of the security fee ($80) imposed was correct, (4)
whether the $60 criminal conviction assessment was correct, (5) whether the trial court
should have considered the ability to pay restitution; (6) whether the issue of an ability to

have previously noted, at our invitation King filed a supplemental brief asserting (1) a
violation of his right to confront witnesses; and (2) a violation of his right to a speedy
