STATE v. HARDY

No. 8519SC643.

336 S.E.2d 661 (1985)

STATE of North Carolina v. Lonnie R. HARDY.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

December 3, 1985.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Atty. Gen. Lacy H. Thornburg by Associate Atty. Angeline M. Maletto, Raleigh, for the State.

Steven A. Grossman, Kannapolis, for defendant-appellant.

ARNOLD, Judge.

The issue dispositive of this action is whether the court erred by allowing the defendant to represent himself without determining whether he had voluntarily and freely waived his right to counsel. Believing the court erred we vacate the 6 December 1984 judgment.

The Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees persons accused of serious crimes the right to counsel. Gideon v. Wainwright, 372 U.S. 335
