Synopsis

"A Comprehensive Legal Assistance Manual For Post-Conviction Relief and Prisoners' Civil Rights". This is your guide to your constitutional rights whether incarcerated, or helping someone who is. All are brand new, never used from PSI publishing. All include: "Current information on Legislation and court Decisions affecting prisoners." "Sample Forms for appeals, habeas corpus actions, motions, constitutional rights complaints for state and federal prisoners, discovery documents and requests to proceed in forma pauperis." "A detailed index, glossary and resource directory". "A quick guide to the Freedom of Information and Privacy Act." Over 3,000 case law decisions covering criminal convictions, sentencing and prisoner civil rights issues." IMPORTANT: The reasoning for the high price is because this edition went out of print in 2001, hence the high demand as well.
