Criminal defendants have a right to counsel when their bail is set, Maryland's top court unanimously held on Wednesday. Without finding a constitutional guarantee, the Court of Appeals said the state's Public Defender Act entitles defendants to have a lawyer present at the initial bail hearing. "What the Court of Appeals has done is end the system of incarceration without representation," said Michael Schatzow, the Venable LLP attorney who argued the case on behalf of defendants seeking counsel. A majority of the Court of Appeals also rejected the Office of the Public Defender's request for a delay so it could secure additional funding and personnel to provide representation to indigent defendants at 170,000 initial bail hearings annually. "The public defender's asserted defense of bud...
