Accordingly, there is no chance that the loss of her appeal, in and of itself, could result in a physical deprivation of petitioner's liberty. Here, the conviction that petitioner seeks to appeal resulted in the imposition of a fine, with no term of imprisonment. County Court, 773 P.2d 1074 (Colo.1989)(attorney must be provided for indigent defendants accused of crimes if imprisonment may be imposed).Ĭonversely, when an indigent defendant is not actually sentenced to a term of imprisonment, due process does not require the appointment of counsel. We agree.Īn indigent defendant has a constitutional right to appointed counsel “only when, if he loses, he may be deprived of his physical liberty.” Lassiter v. Respondents assert the district court erred in requiring the appointment of counsel on appeal because petitioner did not face a term of incarceration. Concluding that due process and equal protection principles protected indigent persons from discrimination and required the appointment of counsel for appeal, that court ordered the appointment of the municipal public defender for appellate purposes, and this appeal followed. Petitioner thereafter sought relief in the district court under C.R.C.P. Concluding that petitioner did not face incarceration, the municipal court denied the request.

Because she was indigent, petitioner sought appointment of the public defender for appeal.

Although the Code authorizes imposition of a fine and/or imprisonment, petitioner was sentenced to pay a fine and no jail term was imposed.Īurora Municipal Code § 50-170(c)(2) provides that the municipal public defender will represent an indigent defendant on appeal only upon order of the court.
