Asked 3/19/2016 – Pampa, TX

If someone in Pampa, TX. ( Grey County ) was Indicted and arrested and on Jan 08 2014 for aggrivated assault/with a deadly weapon and released on bond. Then arrested again for this charge on or around March 12, 2016. He still has not been to court. His public defender is always in poor health, and never returns calls.

Answer

No one can tell you why a second warrant was issued except the court personnel involved. If your lawyer is too sick to represent you, you should consider getting another lawyer. Don’t be passive “Oh, he never calls”. Schedule an appointment with his office. Go up to the office and wait. If you do all this and still can’t meet with your attorney, you can outline the attempts you made to contact the attorney in a letter to the court and request another attorney be appointed.
