Rogers, the Supreme Court returned, after manjf years, to the issue of whether there is a right to counsel in civil cases/ The case focused on the due process rights of litigants who face the possibility of incarceration in a civil contempt proceeding for failure to pay child support.3 The Court held that the Fourteenth Amendment's Due Process Clause does not require the state to appoint counsel for an indigent defendant facing incarceration in a civil contempt action so long as procedural are in place.4 These alternative procedural safeguards must ensure that litigants have adequate notice of the to pay standard,5 a fair opportunity to present and dispute evidence, and a decision with clear findings on the issue of ability to pay.6 The Court limited its holding to cases in which a pro se petitioner initiates the contempt proceeding, and suggested that in cases brought by government attorneys, appointment of counsel may be required.7While the right to appointed counsel for indigent defendants in criminal cases is a long established constitutional right,8 the question of whether indigent defendants in civil cases are entitled to appointment of counsel has been the subject of debate and concern.9 In Lassiter v. Department of Social Services,10 the Supreme Court held that pro se indigent parents in termination of parental rights proceedings were not, as a constitutional matter, entitled to appointment of counsel.11 Lassiter exemplifies the quandary that indigent litigants face when trying to represent themselves in court proceedings that affect matters of fundamental importance, such as whether they will lose their rights to parent their children.12 The stakes of many civil cases are arguably much higher than those of criminal cases for which counsel is appointed.13 Yet, indigent litigants are left to advocate for themselves without the benefit of counsel, regardless of the complexity of the case or the stakes at issue. Lawyers who provide legal services and other advocates for low income communities have long argued for legislative and court reform that would guarantee indigent litigants the right to appointment of counsel in high stakes civil matters.14The Turner case does not go so far as to hold that indigent defendants are entitled to counsel in civil child support contempt proceedings. However, the decision provides litigants more protection in high stakes civil matters by requiring that alternative procedural safeguards be in place to ensure a fair hearing.15 In addition, the Court recognized that balance of power is a consideration in determining whether appointment of counsel might be required and limited its holding in Turner to situations in which a pro se petitioner has initiated the child support contempt proceeding case as opposed to the state. …" @default.
