Handbook for
Criminal Appeals in the Seventh Circuit: This handbook
authored by Federal Defender Richard H. Parsons is a guide for any lawyer litigating a criminal appeal in the
Seventh Circuit. It contains a step-by-step guide to the appellate
process, from the filing of the notice of appeal to seeking certiorari in
the United States Supreme Court. In addition to the eight chapters on all
aspects of criminal appellate practice in the Seventh Circuit, there are also 41
sample motions and 19 sample letters frequently used by lawyers on appeal. |
 | Possible
Issues for Review in Criminal Appeals, 2d Ed.:
This book authored by Federal Defender Richard H. Parsons contains a number of potential issues, including citations to
cases, which a criminal defense attorney may wish to consider when looking for
issues to raise on appeal. Potential issues ranging from the pre-trial to
the sentencing phase are addressed. Please note, however, that the current
edition was drafted prior to the United States Supreme Court's decision in
United States v. Booker, and that case should be considered in conjunction
with the information contained in the book. |
 | Sample Motions Book.:
This book compiled by Federal Public Defender Richard H. Parsons contains numerous motions ranging from the
pre-trial to the post-convictions stage. It is a compilation of motions
used by attorneys in our office, as well as motions submitted by attorneys
with federal defenders across the county.
