As amended through October 9, 2024
Rule 33.2 - Aid of counsel Time for deliberation
(A) A defendant shall not be called upon to plead before having an opportunity to retain counsel, or if defendant is eligible for appointment of counsel, until counsel has been appointed or right to counsel waived. A defendant with counsel shall not be required to enter a plea if counsel makes a reasonable request for additional time to represent the defendants interest, or if the defendant has not had a reasonable time to consult with counsel.
(B) A defendant without counsel should not be called upon to plead to any offense without having had a reasonable time to consider his decision. When a defendant without counsel tenders a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to an offense, the court should not accept the plea unless it is reaffirmed by the defendant after a reasonable time for deliberation, following the advice from the court required in section 33.8.
