Your story is incomplete. You say that your son was charged, then you say he was told he wouldn't be charged. You say that the assigned attorney had a conflict of interest, but you don't say what stage the case had reached when she realized this. You don't say that he was convicted, yet you say he has a probation officer and needs an appeal. Please re-submit your question with a clearer explanation of what has happened.
