Try a Marsden motion if you are in CA. You will have to show that your representation is not up to standard.

Ask the PD office, and justify why it should be done. Ask the judge, with the same basis.

You can request a different public defender. Depending upon many factors (these include the reason for the request; the timing of the request - including how long the current attorney has been on the case), the court can refuse your request.
