If you cannot afford a lawyer, you can ask the court to appoint a public defender. Here's how you can proceed:
- Inform the court at your next hearing that you cannot afford legal representation.
- Provide evidence of your financial situation if requested.
- Public defenders are experienced in criminal cases and can help present your defense.
If you believe the recording is crucial, make sure it’s preserved and ready to present in court.
can i gewt in more trouble for saying not guilty if found guilty
No, you won’t get in more trouble just for pleading not guilty, even if you’re later found guilty. Pleading not guilty is your legal right. It gives you a chance to defend yourself, present evidence, or negotiate a plea deal.
