The Northern California Innocence Project (NCIP) has a remarkable record of obtaining habeas relief — and often full exonerations — in cases posing serious questions of actual innocence, even under circumstances in which the claims might appear barred or face other obstacles. FDAP Assistant Director Brad O’Connell will interview senior NCIP attorney Paige Kaneb on NCIP’s approach to habeas investigation and presentation of claims. This “in conversation” program will explore possible lessons from NCIP’s approach for our own consideration and investigation of possible habeas claims as appointed appellate counsel.
The webinar is scheduled for June 16, 2021 from 12 to 1 p.m.
The training qualifies for 1.0 hours of general MCLE credit and 1.0 hours of appellate and criminal specialization credit.
