- State Must Overhaul Indigent Defense System
You would think 46 years is enough time for New York to live up to the promise that everyone charged with a crime has the right to effective counsel, as the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the landmark 1963 Gideon v. Wainwright case. Think again. Despite our self-professed commitment to equal justice, New York's county-based system of public defense has been declared an "ongoing crisis" by a commission named by former Chief Judge Judith S. Kaye. That report found a fractured, inefficient, underfunded and overburdened system, where undertrained lawyers try to handle unmanageable caseloads.

Wainwright's promise of effective counsel was restricted by Strickland v. Washington's requirement of reviewing the post-trial record. The proper focus is on the right to a fair trial which includes parity in the effectiveness of counsel throughout the trial process.
