Is a defendant entitled to a new trial if he is found guilty of a charge of assault by reason of gross negligence?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Sandoval v. Calderon, 241 F.3d 765 (9th Cir. 2001):
Sandoval also contends that he is entitled to a new trial because he was denied his right to represent himself under Faretta v. California, 422 U.S. 806 (1975). Faretta established a defendant's right to self-representation, provided that the defendant knows of its disadvantages and voluntarily waives counsel.
