Brother needs help with final appeal

My brother who has been at the Donavan State Prison in San Diego California needs an attorney who will help him file an extension for his final appeal. He has no money of course & neither do I but we would appreciate it very much if there is an attorney who would take his case for nothing. Maybe an attorney just starting out? My brother of which I have copies of his court papers was sentenced 25yrs. to life because of the 3strikes law. He was convicted of a felony this time yet these were misdemeanors. One was switching the license plates on his car. He even had a juror come forward in fact two & said that they had reasonable ? regarding his guilt.
