Description

The rule in Arizona has been that a defendant is not denied effective assistance of counsel unless the proceedings against him were reduced to a farce, sham or mockery of justice. In State v. Williams, 122 Ariz. 146, 593 P.2d 896 (1979), the Supreme Court recently reviewed this standard, noted that it has been rejected by many jurisdictions, but declined to decide whether a new standard should be adopted, because it found that the appellant in that case had been provided with effective counsel under even the most stringent tests applied in other jurisdictions. Thus, the standard for review for us is still the farce, sham or mockery of justice test. See State v. Dippre, 121 Ariz. 596, 592 P.2d 1252 (1979). The court in Williams pointed out, however, that in applying this test the Arizona courts have examined counsels representation for competence.
