Rule 39-2. Discussions with Defendant

The prosecuting authority shall not engage in plea discussions at the disposition conference, or at other times, directly with a defendant who is represented by counsel, except with such counsel's approval. If the defendant refuses to be represented by counsel or waives this right under Section 44-3, the prosecuting authority may properly discuss disposition of the charges directly with the defendant.
