Description:

Clarence Earl Gideon was accused of breaking into a pool hall. Unable to afford an attorney, he was convicted after a quick trial. He faced a five-year prison sentence if he had accepted the verdict. Instead, Gideon appealed his conviction, taking the case to the Supreme Court. This led to the pivotal case Gideon v. Wainwright, which established the constitutional right for defendants who cannot afford one to have legal representation in criminal proceedings.
