“While an accused should have an opportunity to secure counsel of his choice when he is financially able to do so, it is nonetheless imperative that he exercise this right of selection at the appropriate stage of the proceeding. McCraney v. State (1979) [180] Ind.App. [190], 388 N.E.2d 283 ; Atkins v. State (1977) [175] Ind.App. [230], 370 N.E.2d 985 . The freedom of choice of counsel may not be manipulated to subvert the orderly procedure of the courts or to interfere with the fair administration of justice. U.S. v. Terry (5th Circuit 1971), 449 Fed.2d 727. A trial court, in the exercise of its discretion, may refuse to allow an accused to replace counsel during or immediately before trial because such a substitution would require the court to grant a continuance. Wombles v. State (1979) [270] Ind. [181], 383 N.E.2d 1037 ; Magley v. State (1975), 263 Ind. 618 , 335 N.E.2d 811 .”
