No-Merit Briefs Undermine The Adversary Process In Criminal Appeals, Randall L. Hodgkinson
The Journal of Appellate Practice and Process
Appellate defense attorneys face a dilemma when faced with an appeal that has no obvious merit. No-merit briefs allow an attorney to forego an appeal when there is no apparent merit. In cases involving direct appeals from conviction, the cost of abandonment of the client far outweighs the benefits.

Expedited Review Of Capital Post-Conviction Claims: Idaho’S Flawed Process, Joan M. Fisher
Expedited Review Of Capital Post-Conviction Claims: Idaho’S Flawed Process, Joan M. Fisher
The Journal of Appellate Practice and Process
The Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (“AEDPA”) is a federal attempt to expedite litigation in capital cases. Many states adopted unitary appeal systems in response to the AEDPA.

In Idaho, Idaho Code § 19-4908 establishes special proceedings for capital cases including a forty-two day limitation to present any claims. This article makes a critical analysis of Idaho’s capital post-conviction procedure.
