THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. WILLIAM ROSS PHILLIPS, Defendant and Appellant.

Court of Appeals of California, First District, Division One.

September 2, 1964.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Neal L. Petersen, under appointment by the District Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant.

Stanley Mosk, Attorney General, Robert R. Granucci and Charles W. Rumph, Deputy Attorneys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.

MOLINARI, J.

On this appeal from a conviction for possession of forged checks for payment of money (Pen. Code, § 475), and conspiracy to commit forgery (Pen. Code, §§ 182 and 470), the main question presented is whether defendant's right to counsel has been infringed upon. For the reasons that follow, we have concluded that defendant suffered an improper deprivation of counsel and that therefore the judgments appealed from must be reversed.
