Description
Two cases are consolidated in this appeal. In superior court No. A610763, the judgment of conviction of first degree burglary (Pen. Code, §§ 459, 460) must be reversed because the trial court denied defendants timely pretrial motion for substitution of appointed counsel without giving defendant an opportunity to state the specific grounds for his dissatisfaction with counsel. (People v. Marsden (1970) 2 Cal. 3d 118 [84 Cal. Rptr. 156, 465 P.2d 44]; People v. Lewis (1978) 20 Cal. 3d 496 [143 Cal. Rptr. 138, 573 P.2d 40].) As the judgment in this case must be reversed for Marsden error we need not consider defendants contention that he was denied effective assistance of trial counsel by counsels failure to challenge defendants transportation to the crime scene under People v. Harris (1975) 15 Cal. 3d 384 [124 Cal. Rptr. 436, 540 P.2d 632].
