In Louisiana, the vast majority of incarcerated individuals do not have the right to counsel in their post-conviction proceedings. However, post-conviction is a critical stage of a criminal appeal and the mechanism by which those who are wrongfully convicted or unfairly sentenced - whether they are innocent, received an unconstitutional trial, or were given an excessive sentence - can challenge their convictions and sentences. Innocence & Justice Louisiana (IJLA) is the only nonprofit law firm in Louisiana focused on post-conviction in non-capital cases. Your contribution supports IJLA's efforts to advocate on behalf of incarcerated men and women in Louisiana and to support the reentry of IJLA clients who have been released. Thank you!!
