Delaware Code Title 11. Crimes and Criminal Procedure § 5105. Legal counsel for public officers and employees

Any public officer or employee, in any criminal action against such officer or employee arising from the officer's or employee's state employment, shall be entitled to petition the Court for a Court-appointed attorney to represent the officer's or employee's interests in the matter.  If the Judge, after consideration of the petition, examination of the petitioner and receipt of such further evidence as the Judge may require, determines that the petition has merit, the Judge shall appoint an attorney to represent the interests of such public officer or employee.  The Court-appointed attorney shall continue such representation until the final determination of the matter, even if the case is transferred to another court, unless such attorney is earlier released by such person or by the Court.  This section shall also apply to all federal courts within this State.
