As the defendant in a criminal case, can I talk to the District Attorney?
Whether the District Attorney, or the Assistant District Attorney assigned to your case will talk to you depends on whether or not you are currently represented by counsel. All attorneys who are members of the State Bar of Georgia are governed by the Bar s Rules of Professional Conduct which prohibit them from speaking to anyone who is represented by another attorney about the subject matter of that representation. If you have an attorney, your attorney can communicate with the District Attorney s Office for you.
