Candice Geiger had appealed to the court repeatedly to receive a new court pointed attorney for the courts to remove her attorney Gerald Alston, Esq.

Her request went without being granted and she was later convicted of murder. Her attorney was later removed for being incompetent and ineffective by Judge Hughes.

An appeal should be granted on these circumstances alone...
