Here it is.. it's in forma pauperis

This is when how you qualify

And this is when you get the lawyer

Quote:
(A) is charged with a felony or a Class A misdemeanor
Quote:
(F) is subject to a mental condition hearing under chapter 313 of this title;
Quote:
(H) is entitled to appointment of counsel under the sixth amendment to the Constitution;
(I) faces loss of liberty in a case, and Federal law requires the appointment of counsel; or
(J) is entitled to the appointment of counsel under section 4109 of this title.
And finally:

Quote:
(2) Whenever the United States magistrate judge or the court determines that the interests of justice so require, representation may be provided for any financially eligible person who—
(A) is charged with a Class B or C misdemeanor, or an infraction for which a sentence to confinement is authorized; or
(B) is seeking relief under section 2241, 2254, or 2255 of title 28.
These all seem like several different roads to getting a lawyer to defend you against anything that would cause you to be a prohibited person for the vast majority of us.
