Karadzic appeals decision to appoint council

Radovan Karadzic asked ICTY to hear his appeal against the decision to appoint legal counsel after his refusal to show up. He argues he was not provided with a choice, plus he argues that the time for his attorney to prepare is insufficient.

Karadzic will be allowed to continue to represent himself but is forced to work with an appointed attorney. ICTY has threatened that Karadzic will forfeit this right should he continue to boycott the proceedings.
