Re: no response court appointed attorney

I would recommend that you see if your attorney shows up at your court hearing. If they fail to show up or if they show up and you are still unsatisfied, then ask to approach the judge. Tell the judge you want a new attorney appointed and why. There is no need for a written request to the judge.
