The question presented is whether it was error for the Court of Appeals to hold that the state trial court violated respondents Sixth Amendment right to counsel by denying respondents motion for a continuance until the Deputy Public Defender initially assigned to defend him was available. We granted certiorari, 456 U.S. 904 (1982), and we reverse.
