The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Scordel, 928 F.2d 409 (9th Cir. 1991):
The court's numerous inquiries were "adequate and fair hearing[s] into the substance of appellant's conflict with his attorney." United States v. Jones, 512 F.2d 347, 350 (9th Cir.1975). On the basis of these inquiries, we conclude that the court took "the necessary time [to] conduct such necessary inquiry as might have eased [the defendant's] dissatisfaction, distrust and concern." Brown v. Craven, 424 F.2d 1166, 1170 (9th Cir.1970). 2
