Abstract
In June 2008 the Supreme Court of the United States addressed the implications of mental illness on a defendant's constitutional right to self-representation in the case of Indiana v. Edwards. This article examines the Court's holding in Edwards from both legal and psychological perspectives. Additionally, particular factors essential for establishing a specific standard of analysis to evaluate pro se competency are addressed.
