Article 36

第三十六条

When the defendant is unable to appoint defense counsel due to indigency or other reasons, the court must appoint defense counsel for the defendant upon request; provided, however, that this does not apply when defense counsel has been appointed by a person other than the defendant.

被告人が貧困その他の事由により弁護人を選任することができないときは、裁判所は、その請求により、被告人のため弁護人を附しなければならない。但し、被告人以外の者が選任した弁護人がある場合は、この限りでない。
