Legal Question in Criminal Law in Washington
I fired my attorney before the judge in a criminal case. My (former) representative immediately went over to discuss my case with the DA. Since I had dismissed the attorney before he counseled with the DA, I wish to know whether this is appropriate?

Probably. It could depend on the conversation. It was likely just administrative discussion; returning copies of reports, arranging transfer to another lawyer, that kind of thing. The attorney still must maintain your confidential information, and can't negotiate the case on your behalf.
But certainly nothing you have said suggests anything inappropriate was taking place.
