Abstract
Defendant appealed from conviction of murder because of the incompetence and negligence of his attorney in the conduct of the trial. Held, the fact that the defendant was not properly represented by the counsel of his own choice was no ground for the court to go beyond the record and grant a new trial. People v. Hartwell (Ill. 1930) 173 N.E. 112.
