It's not that simple. You can't go around firing your lawyers every time you feel like it and causing trial delays and mistrials. The state has a right to try you, and you cannot avoid that through shenanigans. Client had already had trouble and fired his Public Defender. Client had hired counsel and retained him without complaint until trial started. If you allow shenanigans to stop a trial in process, you are essentially giving the Defendant veto power over a trial when it doesn't go his way. At some point the Judge has to make the case happen. When and how is a tough question I'm pleased I don't have to answer.
