In order to qualify for a public defender (which I thought you were appointed one) I am told my step son needs to be declared indigent (which he is) Where do we go to have this done, what is the process. The judge said get a lawyer not much help there? The arrest was in Homewood, IL (Cook County) and the arraignment? was at the Markham courthouse.
