Summary
In Raulerson, the Eleventh Circuit had found the petitioner had failed to make an "unequivocal" request to proceed pro se, by, among other things, "sen[ding] a letter to the judge requesting permission to appear pro se" which "[t]he court did not immediately act on", because he "did not pursue the matter" and while "a defendant need not continually renew his request to represent himself even after it is conclusively denied by the trial judge, he must pursue the matter diligently."
