I'm sorry, i didnt want to open a new thread solely for this information so im just gonna post it here, if there's a better place to post this info,
be my guest and quote it.
Some interesting developments regarding this case:
3.71 Finding the right defence attorney/legal counsel for your trial
A Justiciar Knight must be prepared to actively search for a nationalistic oriented (patriotic) lawyer /legal counsel before his trial starts. DO NOT
accept a random appointed public defender offered by the regime. Chances are too great that this individual will be either incompetent or not willing
to work for you interests (which is to further the cause, and not provide the most optimal defence). The nationalistic orientated defence lawyer you
are searching for should provide his services pro bono (free of charge as an investment in a good cause). If you managed to execute a relatively
“spectacular” operation many so called “high profile” attorneys will contact you and offer their services discounted or for free. Understand
that a large majority of these individuals will not be willing to cater for your demands but are only interested in the publicity surrounding the
case. They are so called “legal prostitutes” who just wants their face on TV. Ignore these requests and continue your search for a patriotic
oriented defence attorney who is willing to accept your three primary demands. You will be restricted from doing effective research from jail so you
may have to ask anyone you know on the outside to assist you in searching for this candidate. Very few patriotic defence attorneys will be willing to
flag their political views publicly as it may have devastating effects on their career so finding a good candidate may prove to be a challenging task.
On the bright side, a defence attorney flagging his views may actually benefit that individual as well as he will literally have a monopoly on that
niche market in future related cases.

As you can see, Breivik explicitly discusses the lawyers profile he's interested in, in case he survives the attack.
Now, according to Reuters
(
af.reuters.com...), Breivik
contacted a lawyer named Geir Lippestad for his services, which is his actual attorney. The interesting part is that this lawyer is affiliated member
of the Labour Party, the same institution he claims he despises and consequently attacked in that Island.
Geir Lippestad (born 1964) is a Norwegian lawyer. He has been defence counsel in several high profile cases. In July 2011, he was appointed as defence
counsel for Anders Behring Breivik, the admitted perpetrator of the 2011 Norway attacks.[1][2] Lippestad also represented Ole Nicolai Kvisler, who was
convicted of the racially motivated murder of Benjamin Hermansen in 2002.[3] Lippestad is a member of the Norwegian Labour Party, and has been deputy
chair of its Nordstrand local chapter.[4] [edit]

Interesting, huh? What's your take on it, guys.
It should be also noted that Breivik makes himself absolutely clear on the fact that he doesn't want to be considered "Insane" during the trial, so
its very strange that his own lawyer says that he might be insane.
