Description

The plaintiff in error Phillip Easa Rahhal was charged with possession with intent to utter a forged check (sec. 943.38 (2),
Stats.) and of forgery (sec. 943.38 (1)). Following his unsuccessful attempt to cash the forged check at the State Bank of
Hales Corners, he was arrested. The sum of $700, which he had on his person, was confiscated by the sheriff's department.
On this charge he appeared with his attorney Walter Steininger before the trial Judge. The return of the funds was denied
and Mr. Steininger was appointed counsel on the ground Rahhal was indigent. A plea of not guilty was entered, a jury trial
waived, and the case was set for trial on a day certain. Prior to that date Rahhal was charged with forgery of another check and he again appeared before the trial court with Mr.
Steininger who was appointed counsel to defend him on the second charge. A plea of not guilty was made, a jury trial waived,
and a request made that the two cases be consolidated for trial.
