Your question is a bit unclear. If you are asking if you can withdraw a guilty plea and enter a plea of not guilty on a day your attorney is not present, no the judge will not let you do that. If you are saying that the state gave you a public defender and then allowed you to plead guilty when your attorney was not present, then yes you could get your plea back. I can assure you that neither of these things happened. If they had, it would be front page news in law journals all over the nation. The judge would be suspended immediately. The prosecuting attorney would also lose his job. Both would probably be disbarred. Yes, because it is the states responsibility to provide representation for the charged defendant.

Florida argument came from an earlier case, Betty v Brady, which said that right to counsel provided by the fourteenth amendment does not compel states to provide counsel to any defendant. Also, Gideon did not commit a capital offense.(the 14th amendment transfers the laws in the Bill of Rights to the states)
