At your request, IF you qualify for one, one will be appointed. You will be added to their caseload and be contacted by their office. If you are an inmate of a jail and awaiting trial it will probably be sooner rather than later inasmuch as the 'speedy trial' rule is applicable to you. However, if you are an inmate in a prison (already tried and convicted) it will probably be somewhat longer since there is no "speedy trial" requirement which apoplies to you.

How long after incarceration in New York State should a person have a hearing or see a public defender..?

How long it takes to have your first hearing - called an arraignment - depends on what part of New York you are in, and the court's caseload. You don't have control over it. But you do have control over seeing a public defender, and you should do that immediately. A public defender may even be able to get your bail reduced, so you need to have one before you even post bail. This is assuming you can't afford to hire a private lawyer; the court will determine whether you qualify for a public defender, based on your income. As soon as you are arrested, inform the police that you want a lawyer, and that you need a public defender because you can't afford to hire a private lawyer. You can even contact a public defender office before you are arrested, although they can't represent you until you are actually arrested. Click the related link below to see links to all New York public defender offices. If you are already in custody, have a friend or family member do it for you. After you click the link, you'll see a list of legal aid and lawyer referral resources. Just look for "public defender" links. Use the "New York State Public Defender List" link in the statewide category, or scroll down to your county and look for a link to the local public defender office. Click one of those blue links to go to their website and get their contact info.
