Description
On June 14, 1977, the defendant was charged by direct information with assault in the first degree by threatening a peace officer with a deadly weapon and with habitual criminality stemming from two prior felony convictions in 1976 for aggravated robbery. The charge of first-degree assault arose out of a confrontation between three inmates at the Colorado State Penitentiary and a prison guard on March 26, 1977. The defendant requested and the court appointed an attorney to represent him. After a preliminary hearing, this attorney was permitted to withdraw because of irreconcilable differences with the defendant. At the defendant's request, the court continued the case for several months to allow him to retain private counsel. He was unsuccessful in his efforts and, on January 9, 1978, he filed a written waiver of counsel and advised the court that he would represent himself. The court accepted the defendant's decision to represent himself but, over his objection, it appointed an attorney as advisory counsel to assist the defendant with trial preparation and trial in the event the defendant requested such assistance.*fn2 This attorney was permitted to withdraw shortly after his appointment because of a possible conflict arising from his position as a hearings officer at the penitentiary. On January 26, 1978, the court appointed another attorney as advisory counsel, once again over the defendant's objection, and set the case for trial on May 31, 1978.
