What is the test for determining whether there is an actual prejudice to a defendant caused by a delay in completing a motion?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Mays, 549 F.2d 670 (9th Cir. 1977):

It should be noted that the overwhelming majority of the cases did not find the requisite element of actual prejudice to the defendant caused by the delay. Hence, it might be argued that the discussions of the test are dicta. See United States v. Barket, 530 F.2d 189, 194-195 (8th Cir. 1976); accord, United States v. White, 470 F.2d 170, 175 (7th Cir. 1972).
