Under the Sixth Amendment, he or she does not have the right to an attorney before that. It took several years before the Supreme Court ruled that every defendant has the right to an attorney, thereby obligating lower courts to provide attorneys to indigent defendants.
Jumper's Knee. Patellar tendinitis, also known as jumper's knee is an inflammation of the patellar tendon that connects your kneecap (patella) to your shinbone. This tendon helps in extension of the lower leg.
If a rupture of the patellar. tendon occurs, and the patient tries to stand up, the knee will usually. buckle and give way because the quadriceps muscle is no longer able to. hold the knee in a position of extension (straight). When the quadriceps. tendon ruptures, the patella loses its anchoring support in the thigh.
