Discuss Voice of Reason's answer to: Post conviction defence attorney that would be willing to look at my case that is nine years old to tell me if there are any options at this point

It doesn't hurt to talk to an attorney. They may take the case based on the merits or new evidence or mistakes made by previous council. It tain't goin' to be cheap, if they even except the case. The court determines if it wants to hear the appeal or not. So it's a crap shoot. Good luck!
