If this ever becomes a capital case, he couldn't represent her anyhow...right? My understanding is the attorney would be required to have prior experience with such cases...either as lead or co-counsel. If this is true, there's no need to worry about a mistrial/appeal based on his 'boo-boo'.
Sure he can. And he will have a co-counsel as well. How is a lawyer going to get experience until he tries a case? They have to start somewhere.
