Federal public defenders warn of dire budget cuts
Federal public defender offices face a 14 percent spending cut in fiscal year 2014 on top of 9 percent this year.

Congress funds about $1 billion for indigent defense split between public defenders and private attorneys. The right to counsel is constitutional and workloads are not controllable by defenders.
