• recognizing that where there is an alleged conflict of interest between a lawyer and client, trial court’s inadequate inquiry cannot be treated as harmless error
• “The assistance of counsel is among those ‘constitutional rights so basic to a fair trial that their infraction can never be treated as harmless error.’ Chapman v. California, 386 U.S 18, 23 & n.8, 87 S.Ct. 824, 827-28 & n.8, 17 L.E.2d 705 (1967).”
• \The reason appellate courts have declined to apply the harmless error rule to cases in which a defendant was deprived of the right to conflict-free counsel is that any action the lawyer refrained from taking because of the conflict would not be apparent from the record.\
