In California, is it possible for a defendant at trial (felony) to deliver their own opening statement without having to represent his or her self for the entire trial?
I think its pretty stupid for a person to represent himself at trial, but what if a defendant insisted on doing the opening statement himself, but wanted a lawyer to handle the rest, is that possible?
