Group of answer choices

A. to legal counsel in felony cases.

B. against self-incrimination.

C. against suspicionless searches and seizures.

D. to an open trial before a judge.

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Gideon requested that the court appoint one for him. According to Florida state law, however, an attorney may only be appointed to an indigent defendant in capital cases, so the trial court did not appoint one. This was ruled on 7-0 that a public defender be appointed in felony cases.
