description: Our first inquiry about Civil Gideon is: does it exist and if so, in what form? To understand that, we must review history, constitutionalism, and legal precedents. That may permit us to answer the next question: “If not,” or, more specifically, what is the status of Civil Gideon in this state, and nation? This leads to the last question “why not?” or more specifically, Why shouldn’t there be jurisprudentially Civil Gideon? If it is an established principle, what appropriate reasons should or could prevent its full application?
