In Re the Welfare of Lewis , 88 Wash. 2d 556 ( 1977 )

Hicks, J.

(dissenting) — I dissent. I am not prepared to open the floodgate of indigent appeals at public expense in adverse juvenile declination rulings. That is precisely what the majority opinion invites. Until required by the United States Supreme Court, I am satisfied that we have gone far enough in requiring that, in indigent cases, an attorney be appointed to represent the juvenile at the declination hearing.
