Question Presented (AI Summary)

Did the Indiana Court of Appeals err by ruling that when a trial court states that pro-bono counsel may be charged for costs of a transcript for an indigent client and an invoice is sent to counsel by the court reporter, that the issue is not ripe for appeal unless Appellate counsel is ordered to pay those costs. Is the trial court's statement a 'chill' on the indigent client's 6th Amendment Rights?

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

Questions Presented for Review 1) Did the Indiana Court of Appeals err by ruling that when a trial court states that pro-bono counsel may be charged for costs of a transcript for an indigent client and an invoice is sent to counsel by the court reporter, that the issue is not ripe for appeal unless Appellate counsel is ordered to pay those costs. Is the trial court’s statement a “chill” on the indigent client’s 6° Amendment Rights? 2) When a person is placed on Home-Detention and one of the standard rules is that no person convicted of a felony will be allowed to live with the person on Home Detention, should that rule automatically extend to the defendant’s spouse or is the extension to spouse an infringement on a family’s right to living arrangements as described in Moore v. City of East Cleveland?
