When a person uses court appointed counsel, they are not permitted to choose the attorney that represents them. If a problem arises with the current attorney, the court could appoint a new attorney to represent you. However, you do not get to pick the new attorney. The only way you have any choice of attorney is to retain your own counsel. Because of the seriousness of your case, I strongly recommend that you hire an attorney with experience in law of self-defense.
