Charlotte County Appeals Attorney
The Appellate Process
When a person is convicted of a crime and they believe that they were wrongly convicted due to a legal error or if the sentence given to them is unfair, an attorney may file an appeal on their behalf. An appeal can only be filed up to 30 days in the state of Florida from the date of conviction and a defendant must ask the court for permission or 'leave" to file an appeal if they pled guilty. Nevertheless, if the defendant was found guilty during the trial they have the legal right to file an appeal.
There are many issues that can support a person's right to file an appeal, including the following:
- Inadmissible evidence allowed in court
- Lack of sufficient evidence
- Mistakes made by judge regarding jury instructions
- Misconduct on behalf of jurors
- Newly discovered evidence
- Violation of plea agreement
- Involuntary plea
- Sentencing error
- Lack of subject matter
