municipality´s or municipal court´s legal obligation to provide
defense counsel at no cost to indigent persons appearing before the

That might apply if he was legally emancipated from his parents....otherwise I would bet the parents are legally responible for him and his actions.
Indigent being the key words......you have to be dirt poor to qualify as indigent.
