Do you have a lawyer during all this? Your asking questions now and from the sounds of it its about over.

Didn't your lawyer fight for you?

Then that's the basis for your appeal.. You are ENTITLED to COMPETENT representation. The problem is, you AREN'T entitled to a free lawyer for your appeal.

She wasn't ready she had evidence that the girl drunk and smoke pot and didn't use it also the camera the DA use some of the picture to paint a monster and them in trial I brought up the fact that their was more pictures

I need help to get a lawyer

i need help to get a lawyerHello again, w:

I don't think you're going to find an organization to help you, but I wouldn't take an exconvicts word on the internet...

The Innocence Project (google 'em) is the only organization I know. They usually only help guys on death row. But, I'd write 'em a letter. Your state bar may have attorney's willing to do pro bono (free) work. Write 'em a letter. Law firms sometimes do pro bono work. Write to as many of them as you can. The ACLU might help you. Write 'em a letter. In short, get the phone book out, and start writing letters.

Thank u

Have you been convicted already?

Yes

In court with an attorney while on trial is when and how you fight it. And after conviction you have a limited time for an appeal. If you don't get or can't appeal, there is nothing to fight, you are now a convicted sex offender
