The Last Resort Exoneration Project
The Last Resort Exoneration is a Legal Project at the Seton Hall University School of Law that offers free (pro bono) investigative and legal services to the convicted innocent people of New Jersey. If an incarcerated person appears to have a legitimate basis for claiming that he or she is factually innocent, the project will undertake an independent review of the facts of the case and all surrounding circumstances. They then decide whether further investigation is necessary before making a final decision about whether or not to take the case in any capacity. Incarcerated people can file an application seeking a review of their claims of actual factual innocence. All applicants are subjected to rigorous screening. The most important screening criteria are a plausible and substantial claim of actual innocence, and the applicant’s willingness to cooperate with their requests aimed at discovering the truth. If you are seeking exoneration, send them your application at the address provided.
