[QUOTE="Terry D., post: 1175829, member: 48771"] Well the story being long I condensed it. I went to my first arraignment and there were no felony attorneys, so was told if I was there for a felony I could not ask for O.R. (own recognizance) to get out. I was still put on vacation and my next court date was for the following Mon. Didn't have enough capitol to make bail by the way. First DUI with injuries (bruised ribs) to other pass. Anyway was appointed a lawyer on first court date, basically was given a business card for the lawyer and was told I could call him from jail. Well I called everyday as many times as I could to speak to him, talking about "no call, no show" never answered or came to see me. So court on Mon. rolls around and judge calls my case, lawyer stands up and says who is Terry D. I say here sir, and he pulls out his card and says "here's my card call you can call me from jail anytime" I said that I had and he brushed that off and then said "do you want to settle this now or be appointed another attorney, as I'll be on vacation for the next 2 weeks out of the country". Anyway, I said Yes I want another attorney, as I didn't want to get screwed without at least talking about my case. So next court date was scheduled for 2 weeks later. [/QUOTE]
