Re: file a motion for reinditment to have my attorney present

most courts strike any motion submitted pro se when there is an attorney assigned. you can still go to the clerk and file the motion sending a copy to the pd and da. remember a ham sandwich will get indicted by a grand jury so having your lawyer present might not accomplish anything. he/she cannot talk or object during the grand jury proceeding. i would go to the pd office and demand help.
