Bundy denied his right to attorney AGAIN

He is entitled to the best legal defense he can afford, if he cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for him.

So if the best legal defense he can afford just happens to be a Japanese lawyer who speaks no English and has never even been to the US, let alone passed the bar... is he entitled to this?

How would that ever be the best legal defense, affordability aside? You and I already established the attorney must be in good standing with the ABA.

How? I have no idea, but the point being made here is that in order to represent someone, you have to meet certain requirements. This isn't a case of you can have anyone you like. You can have anyone you like within a select bunch of people.

That's deemed constitutional.
