Oregon Federal Appeals (9th Circuit Court of Appeals)
Oregon Criminal Appeals' Lawyer |
| Judges and juries can be wrong in their rulings. Innocent Oregon criminal defendants may receive unjust sentences, be wrongfully incarcerated and suffer needlessly. Wrongful convictions can be the result of common mistakes made during your defense process. Your verdict can be reversed by seeking an Oregon state or federal criminal appeal by using our experienced Oregon Criminal appellate attorneys. |
 |
| Oregon defendants will serve their sentences without question. This can create a great injustice in cases in which a defendant is wrongfully convicted. Frequently, when a criminal case is examined by an experienced Oregon appellate lawyer, potential mistakes made during the trial are uncovered. The Oregon criminal appeal process is designed to give defendants another chance to present their case in front of a higher court, such as the Oregon Court of Appeals, the Oregon Supreme Court or the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. |
 |
| There are many good reasons to seek a criminal appeal. Some grounds for appeal include: |
 |
The judge may have excluded defense evidence which should have been told to the jury; |
|
The trial court may have permitted the jury to hear evidence from the prosecuter which should have been excluded; |
|
The prosecuter may have made unintentional errors or engaged in intentional misconduct; |
|
Defense lawyers made mistakes which prejudiced their trial; |
| Such actions may provide a sufficient reason for an appellate court to overturn your conviction by way of the Oregon criminal appeal process. |
 |
| A criminal appeal is a review of a lower court decision by a higher court. The higher court (such as the Oregon Supreme Court or Oregon Court of Appeals) determines whether the lower court erred either in its application and interpretation of the law. No new evidence is admitted in an Oregon Criminal Appeal. Instead, the appeal is based on the record made at the trial court levels. Hiring an experienced Oregon criminal appeals lawyer can be critical to the success of your case. |

WARNING: In order to appeal a judgment of the trial court, you must file a notice of appeal and the notice to the opposing party within 30 days of the date the judgment was entered in your case. If you have been wrongly convicted of a crime, proving your innocence can be difficult.
