There is no need to panic. The same can be submitted before the Ld Court and it can be stated that the Counsel has been deficient in completing his services and there is threat of miscarriage of justice if the counsel is not replaced. If the Court deems fit it can order a change in the counsel and direct that a new counsel for the proceedings. However, you may patiently ask the counsel to provide the services and he must be busy in other work that your case has not been dealt with timely.

Section 303 of The Code Of Criminal Procedure, 1973 is very clear in this aspect which clearly says that "Right of person against whom proceedings are instituted to be defended. Any person accused of an offence before a Criminal Court, or against whom proceedings are instituted under this Code, may of right be defended by a pleader of his choice"
which meanse that person by making verbal request can ask for another lawyer and court is bound to appoint new lawyer for him.
