If You Cannot Afford an Attorney None Will Be Appointed To You

Wed, Nov 13, 5:00 to 6:20pm, Foothill D - 2nd Level

Abstract

Close to half of the defendants prosecuted in Texas misdemeanor courts are not represented by any type of counsel - appointed, or retained privately. This presentation discusses the findings of the Non-Representation Project, investigating the causes and consequences of mass non-representation by counsel in misdemeanor courts.
