Is a plaintiff entitled to sue the Attorney General for failing to provide a proper representation?

Appellant complains concerning inadequate representation by counsel (Constitution of the United States, 6th Amendment). He was represented by the public defender at the preliminary examination, and at the trial, by counsel of his onw choosing, the latter of whom conducted appellant's [172 Cal.App.2d 302] defense in a competent manner. And, having selected his own attorney, appellant cannot be heard to now challenge the former's ability (People v. Stevens, 5 Cal.2d 92, 98, 99, 53 P.2d 133).
