Learn More About AppellateAdvisor
As a recently retired attorney with decades of experience in criminal defense and appellate project, I (Gary McCurdy) created this website (AppellateAdvisor.com) to focus on summaries of Court of Appeal opinions that are NOT published but provide some level of relief to the defendant. I dig through these cases to find the citable, published opinions that were used to support the appeal.
