Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

The eight proceedings are: (1) custodial interrogations, (2) lineups if formal charges
have been filed, (3) initial appearance, (4) preliminary examination, (5) arraignment,
(6) trial, (7) sentencing, and (8) appeal from a conviction. The presence of an
attorney during custodial interrogation or lineup can help reduce the use of unfair
tactics by police. The presence of an attorney during initial appearance, preliminary
examination, and arraignment can help a defendant understand what is happening
during these proceedings. The presence of an attorney during trial, sentencing, and
appeal, will help a defendant assert any defenses and mitigating circumstances that
can result in a finding of not guilty or a lesser punishment.

Answer to Question 3

FALSE
