Appeals

Business Corporation

Mr. Woodrow has appealed convictions after trial and personal restraints petitions.   After sentencing a person has the right to appeal that final determination to a higher court.  The appeal must be filed within a certain number of days.  Call Mr. Woodrow if you have questions.   A personal restraint petition used to be called a habeas corpus petition.  This type of relief must be filed within a year of conviction for felonies.

Mr. Woodrow had guilty pleas withdrawn and dismissed.  You have a right to appeal most decisions made by a Court but you must act within certain deadlines.

Don’t let your appeal rights lapse.  You might still be able to get relief but it becomes much harder.
