“not guilty and not guilty by reason of insanity”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“"Code of Criminal Procedure Article 512, upon which the defendant relies, provides for assignment of counsel in capital cases when the accused appears at arraignment without counsel. Under Article 515 assignment of counsel shall not deprive the defendant of the right to engage other counsel at any stage of the proceedings in substitution of assigned counsel, and the court may appoint other counsel in substitution of or in addition to the lawyer previously assigned or specially assigned to assist the defendant at arraignment. The Comment under Article 515 states: `The last clause of this article, referring to counsel in substitution for counsel "specially assigned to assist the defendant at the arraignment," recognizes the frequent practice of appointing a presently available lawyer to assist a number of defendants in determining the proper plea at the arraignment. Then after the arraignment the court may appoint other counsel to represent the defendants in the trial of their respective cases.' Plainly the Code contemplates an assignment at arraignment that may be temporary, as in this case where the accused had his own retained attorney who was not present in court." ( 263 So.2d at 341 )”
