Dolley Heads Lawyers Study On Public Defense Limbo
Rep Steve Dolley of Gaston County leads a committee of 83 House and 23 Senate lawyers to draft a bill after the Supreme Court ruling on mandatory court-appointed defense for felonies. They fear financial strain on counties and seek a statewide, acceptable plan including possible county bar adopted regulations and no fixed fee system. Dolley opposes a public defender as the sole solution and aims for a balanced measure within bar associations and court rules.
