Actual Innocence Clinic

The Actual Innocence Clinic is the main project of the Budd Innocence Center.  Clinic students and experienced faculty work together to provide legal assistance to prisoners with claims that they are innocent of the crimes for which they were convicted.  Clinic students typically screen and investigate claims, interview witnesses, review transcripts, prepare motions and pleadings, and conduct factual and legal research.
