U.S. Supreme Court to hear city man's case

Court Alerts

The U.S. Supreme Court has set a date to hear arguments in the Indianapolis case of a man who wants to be his own lawyer.

The justices will hear Ahmad Edwards' case March 26. In 2005, Edwards was convicted in Marion Superior Court of attempted murder and other charges in a 1999 lunch-hour shooting outside Circle Centre mall.

A judge ruled him competent to stand trial but said mental illness prevented him from being able to represent himself. Indiana courts overturned the conviction, and the Indiana attorney general's office asked the high court to take up the case.
