Answer to Question 1

Answer: The judge can remove the defendant from the courtroom. The judge can bind and gag the defendant.
The judge can hold the defendant in contempt.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The Sixth Amendment accords the accused the right to counsel. Gideon v. Wainwright (1963), 373 U.S. 335
extended this right to misdemeanors, and stated that the accused requires the guiding hand of counsel at
every step in the proceedings against him. However, before Gideon in Hamilton v. Alabama (1961), 368
U.S. 52, and after Gideon in Coleman v. Alabama (1970), 399 U.S. 1, the Supreme Court stated that the right
to counsel exists at every critical stage of the proceeding.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
