Substitution of public defender motion denied by judge after a hearing.
Anonymous12 views3 answers
I had a hearing to fire my public defender and the judge denied my motion which I was in shocked that he did.
The public defender told a lie in front of the judge and the judge still wants me to proceed to trial with,Inadequate representation, serious brake down in communications,not within the range of professional rules of sec. 1.3 and sec. 1.4 of the Connecticut rules of conduct. And most of all the attorney lied to me at many times thru out the representation,but the most shocking is when he lies in front of the judge that denied my motion to fire him. And the judge still denied my motion. What can I do at this point??? File a complaint with the bar,Or put in for a new trial after closing arguments?
If a judge has denied your motion for a new public offender, it was most likely for good reason-- your public defender has your best interests in mind. However, if you find yourself unable to effectively communicate with your public defender, and you have not been afforded a new attorney by the court, you might always consider hiring a private attorney to represent you.
Your best option is to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney to represent you. Once that attorney files his/her appearance the public defender will automatically be removed from your file.
