Post-Conviction Review
Post-conviction review is a legal process that allows individuals who have been convicted of a crime to challenge their conviction after their trial and any appeals have concluded. It typically involves reviewing new evidence, identifying legal errors made during the trial, or examining issues such as ineffective legal representation. The goal is to ensure justice is upheld, potentially leading to a new trial, a reduced sentence, or even exoneration if wrongful conviction is proven. This process is crucial for safeguarding the rights of those convicted and maintaining the integrity of the legal system.
