Capital Collateral Attorney Registry
Notice: As of June 23, 2021, the Justice Administrative Commission’s Capital Collateral Attorney
Registry consisted of 48 attorneys that were listed as qualified and willing to accept court appointments to death penalty
post-conviction cases. On July 14, 2022, JAC surveyed those attorneys in order to determine if they still met the qualifications
for such representation and desired to be appointed to such cases. The current Capital Collateral Attorney Registry is
linked below. Please note that this registry is updated as applications for inclusion to the registry are received and approved.
The Justice Administrative Commission (JAC) will continue to
maintain the registry of private attorneys who have indicated their eligibility to be appointed to represent indigent
defendants in capital collateral cases. For the purpose of private court appointment, two Capital Collateral Regional Counsel (CCRC) offices must have a
conflict of interest, as required by law.
