0:24 1:56 If the Court decides the potential punishment doesnt warrant a public defender. You may not qualifyMoreIf the Court decides the potential punishment doesnt warrant a public defender. You may not qualify for instance in minor offenses where jail time is unlikely a public defender may not be appointed.
If you are an indigent defendant in a Colorado criminal case, you may be eligible for a court-appointed attorney called a deputy public defender. To qualify for a Colorado public defender in 2025, the annual income limit for a one-person household is $26,355. For a two-person household, the limit is $35,770.
Denial of Right to Counsel Deprivation of a defendants right to counsel, or denial of a choice of attorney without good cause, should result in the reversal of the defendants conviction, ing to the U.S. Supreme Court. United States v. Gonzalez-Lopez, 548 U.S. 140 (2006).
There are only two reasons to be denied a public defender: 1) The charge does not qualify (ie there is no possible jail penalty) or 2) the person is not indigent (the court has found, after an evidentiary evaluation, that the person can afford to hire private counsel).
The first step that should always be taken is to petition the Court to reconsider your eligibility. The burden of proof is on the accused to prove that they are financially unable to afford private counsel. Explaining their situation to the judge may be enough to turn the decision in their favor.
