Maybe. The judge decides.

Another View: You have the right to discharge your attorney at any time - HOWEVER - the court will not countenance "firing " your attorney on the eve of your trial as a ruse to postpone the proceedings.

What is the schedule of a criminal lawyer?

That would depend on how active the lawyer is, how many cases he or she has on their docket (list of cases in which they have been hired to handle or appointed by the court to handle) and if the lawyer actually takes his or her cases to trial by jury or by the court. An active criminal defense trial attorney, is working about 10-12 hours a day, 6-7 days a week when in trial and a little less in between trials. I don't know much about the schedule of a criminal defense lawyer that only works out plea bargain agreements, and never tries a case. That person is not what I would consider a criminal defense lawyer.
