Help answer this question below.

I have a public defender, when he was assigned I didn't have a job. If I get one now (After the fact) can they take my public defender away because I can now "afford" an atorney?

    They usually don't undo the appointment once it's been made. It's your status at the time of appointment that matters. The public defender is not necessarily "free" though. You may be required to repay some or all of the cost of representation based upon your ability to pay at the conclusion of your case.
