Full-Time Attorney I – II/Habeas Corpus Counsel I – III
Job Description
HCRC attorneys represent California death row inmates in post-conviction habeas corpus proceedings in which we investigate and review the constitutionality of our clients’ capital convictions and sentences and file and litigate petitions alleging the ways in which our clients’ constitutional rights were violated. HCRC counsel review extensive trial records, conduct and supervise new investigation, research and prepare petitions and briefs based on state and federal case, statutory, and constitutional law, and – in many instances – litigate the claims they have raised in superior court evidentiary hearings. HCRC attorneys primarily practice in California’s county superior courts, appellate district courts, and the California Supreme Court; they represent some clients in habeas corpus proceedings in federal court as well. HCRC also serves as a resource and provides training to private court-appointed counsel in capital post-conviction proceedings.
