DETROIT, Jan. 6 (UPI) -- "Underwear bomber" Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is not entitled to a new standby lawyer, a federal judge in Detroit said Friday.
Abdulmutallab, who pleaded guilty to trying to blow up a plane as it approached Detroit on Christmas Day 2009, said Anthony Chambers, a Detroit defense lawyer, and his staff had failed to provide him with documents he needs to prepare for his sentencing, the Detroit Free Press reported. He also said Chambers has ignored him and has not visited him.
