528 A.2d 244

COMMONWEALTH of Pennsylvania v. Joyce S. GRANGER, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.

Filed July 10, 1987.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Joseph P. Grimes, Philadelphia, for appellant.

Leonard Deutchman, Assistant District Attorney, Philadelphia, for Com., appellee.

Before CIRILLO, President Judge, and ROWLEY and HOFFMAN, JJ.


OPINION OF THE COURT

ROWLEY, Judge:

We are presented, in this appeal, with the question of whether the conduct of the police in making available to the accused, who is in their custody, the unrequested opportunity to consult with a law student, who everyone mistakenly believes to be a lawyer, invalidates the accused's subsequent waiver of her Sixth Amendment right to counsel.1
