No. 1094, September Term, 1995.

107 Md. App. 399 (1995)

STEPHEN HARRIS v. STATE OF MARYLAND.

Court of Special Appeals of Maryland.

December 26, 1995.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

George E. Burns, Jr., Assistant Public Defender (Stephen E. Harris, Public Defender, and Mark Colvin, Assistant Public Defender, on the brief), Baltimore, for appellant.

Gwynn X. Kinsey, Jr., Assistant Attorney General (J. Joseph Curran, Jr., Attorney General, on the brief), Baltimore, Paul Victor Jorgensen, Middletown, for appellee.

Bruce W. Koenig, Intervenor.

Argued before WILNER, C.J., and BLOOM and HOLLANDER, JJ.

WILNER, Chief Judge.

The issue before us is whether the Circuit Court for Frederick County erred in directing that the Office of the Public Defender serve as "standby counsel" for a defendant who is eligible for representation by the Public Defender, whom the Public Defender is willing to represent, but who has effectively waived his right to the assistance of counsel in accordance with Md.Rule 4-215. We shall hold that the court did not err.
