Appellate Attorney in California - Preparation of Petitions for Writs of Habeas Corpus

Our firm has prepared many petitions for a writ of habeas corpus. We are experienced in preparing these petitions for persons serving a sentence where compelling evidence has surfaced of a miscarriage of justice. This could be for jury misconduct, prosecutor misconduct including suppression of exculpatory evidence and the use of false evidence in trial.

Writ of Certiorari

We are skilled at preparing petitions to the U.S. Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari. In these petitions we focus on violations of the defendant's constitutional rights. Upon granting of the writ, we can also prepare the brief to the court and, if you wish, go to Washington to make the oral argument.

Writ of Error Coram Nobis

This is a little known writ that applies to defendants who have already served a sentence. It is to correct a manifest injustice that cannot be corrected in any other way. An example would be discovery of exculpatory evidence that a prosecutor suppressed. As the defendant is no longer in jail, a writ of habeas corpus is no longer available. With a petition for this writ, it is possible to clear the defendant's name. This writ can even be requested by an heir to exonerate a deceased defendant of a crime.

We know you are much occupied with your practice and we are here to help. Contact us and we will go to work to assist you with the writ you need.
