P. v. Johnson CA1/5
Defendant and appellant Jeremiah James Johnson (appellant) appeals, contending the trial court erred in failing to conduct the hearing required by People v. Marsden (1970) 2 Cal.3d 118, in response to his requests to replace defense counsel, prior to his competency trial. We conditionally reverse and remand for a Marsden hearing, but we reject appellant’s contention he is entitled to a new competency trial regardless of the outcome of the hearing.
