Question: A practical problem in criminal proceedings: Why can't the defender sit with the defendant?

Defendants and lawyers can meet before the trial, negotiate defense strategies and consult legal issues. In the process of timely trial, the defendant changed his original idea, and lawyers can also listen to the defendant's meaning by listening in on the court and the prosecutor's interrogation of the defendant. In addition, lawyers can also ask questions to the defendant. In fact, most of the court trials in China are step by step, and there are not so many emergencies, unlike in the movies.
