What are the legal aid regulations for changing lawyers?

Legal analysis: 1. If the defendant refuses to defend in court and requests to entrust another defender or appointed lawyer, the collegial panel shall allow it.

2. In the case of multiple defendants, if some defendants refuse to be defended by defenders, and there is no defender, according to the circumstances of the case, the defendant can be dealt with separately and the trial of other defendants can continue.

3. After the new court session, if the defendant refuses to defend in court again, it may be allowed, but the defendant may not entrust another defender or ask for another lawyer to defend himself.

4. The defendant belongs to the situation that legal aid should be provided, and if he refuses to appear in court again after the new court session, he will not be allowed.

Legal basis: Article 35 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC). If a criminal suspect or defendant fails to entrust a defender due to financial difficulties or other reasons, he or his close relatives may apply to a legal aid institution. To meet the conditions of legal aid, legal aid institutions shall appoint lawyers to defend them. If the criminal suspect or defendant is a mental patient who is blind, deaf, dumb or has not completely lost the ability to identify or control his own behavior, and has not entrusted a defender, the people's court, the people's procuratorate and the public security organ shall notify the legal aid institution to appoint a lawyer to defend him. If a criminal suspect or defendant may be sentenced to life imprisonment or death without entrusting a defender, the people's court, the people's procuratorate and the public security organ shall notify the legal aid institution to appoint a lawyer to defend him.
