Guilty Verdict Appeal in Drug Crime Case

If you are found guilty in what you believe was an unfair trial, you may be able to find grounds to appeal the case decision. In cases involving bias on behalf of the judge or jury, misconduct from any prosecutor, jury member, or judge, or in certain instances involving new evidence, you can appeal the verdict in your case and fight for a more just outcome. Our attorneys are experienced in Clinton drug crime appeals and know what you need to do to improve your result after a wrongful conviction. We also know what it takes to succeed with many other post-conviction motions and writs, including the motion for a new trial.

Sentence Appeals in Drug Crime Cases

If you believe your sentence strayed too far from the guidelines set out for your specific case, or if for any other reason you feel the sentence given by the judge didn’t suit your specific situation, it may be possible to appeal the sentence to a higher court. Sentence appeals are tough to win, and it is very important to work with an experienced defense attorney throughout the process. Our lawyers are available now for clients in Clinton and statewide and know what you need to do to appeal a drug crime sentence.

How to Appeal After a Drug Crime Conviction

In Michigan post-conviction cases, not everyone has the right to appeal the decision rendered, though most defendants do have the right to appeal to a higher court. If you have the right to appeal, which our attorneys can help you determine, you can file your appeal provided you don’t hesitate long after the initial decision in your case. If you want to work with a different attorney than the one you retained in the initial case, it is possible to do so provided you act quickly. Our lawyers are available 24/7 to begin working with you in your post-conviction battle.

If you don’t have the right to appeal, you may still be able to file an appeal by asking the court’s permission to have your case heard. In appeal by application for leave cases, you are still faced with time constraints, and need to act quickly to retain an appellate attorney who can guide you through the rest of your case.

When you file an appeal, you don’t get a new trial, and the proceedings are greatly different from what you will be used to by now. Your lawyer will draft an appellate brief outlining the problems with the initial decision or sentence, and the court will review that along with the records from the initial trial in order to determine whether or not the decision should be overturned. Appeals are very tough to win, and near impossible if you fail to hire an attorney who has experience working within the appellate system. Hire an established firm right away and continue your legal fight.
