Name: Sandoval v. Calderon
Opinion Date: 11/06/2000
Court: US Court of Appeals
District 9 Cir
Citation: 231 Fed.3d 1140
Summary

The district court did not err in denying appellant’s motion to represent himself under Faretta v. California (1975) 422 U.S. 806, where his attorney represented to the court that appellant would be satisfied if the court would order library privileges for appellant in lieu of self-representation. A waiver of counsel must be taken personally, but a waiver of self-representation need not be taken personally.
