Horrible court appointed lawyer

He's only visited my boyfriend 1 time since August 25th, he doesn't return calls or texts. His supposed office address is a digital print shop. He is not very compassionate. I am disabled and going through chemo. I keep requesting order my boyfriend for a pre-trial release, so he can help take care o...f me and work., but not a word. Granted he is a court appointed lawyer, but unfortunately, my boyfriend is getting what he paid for, NOTHING!
