Secured Immediate Release for Incarcerated Pro Bono Client
Represented a pro bono client through the Washington, D.C., nonprofit Second Look Project who had been incarcerated for more than 31 years. Following an evidentiary hearing, including a written submission and testimony from three witnesses, the judge immediately granted the client’s motion and resentenced him, giving credit for time served and resulting in his immediate release from prison. Without this motion, the client would not have been eligible for parole for another 10-15 years.
