A federal judge ruled on Wednesday that Anthony Pellicano, the Hollywood private investigator facing trial on wiretapping and conspiracy charges, can represent himself at trial next month. Judge Dale S. Fischer of United States District Court said she was bound by Supreme Court case law to let Mr. Pellicano do so, but urged him to reconsider. The ruling raises the prospect that Mr. Pellicano, who often grabbed the limelight in his career as an investigator to the stars, would again take center stage at his trial, set to begin Feb. 27. By acting as his own lawyer he will cross-examine prosecution witnesses like Anita Busch, the former journalist who the authorities say was wiretapped by Mr. Pellicano and was threatened in a scheme he orchestrated, as well as other cooperating witnesses who prosecutors say hired Mr. Pellicano to wiretap their adversaries.
