OPINION OF THE COURT
Read, J.
The common question in these appeals is whether the courts fulfilled their responsibility to make a “searching inquiry” before allowing defendants to give up the right to a lawyer and conduct their defenses pro se (see People v Arroyo, 98 NY2d 101, 103 [2002]; People v McIntyre, 36 NY2d 10, 17 [1974]; see also Faretta v California, 422 US 806, 835 [1975]; Iowa v Tovar, 541 *473US 77, 88-89 [2004]). In both cases, we conclude that the inquiries were deficient because defendants were not adequately-advised of the dangers and disadvantages of self-representation.
