Re: criminal law
If the case is pending on appeal, I would locate the case on courtinfo.ca.gov and write a letter to the Court of Appeal. Probably nothing will happen.
Re: criminal law
Contact the court and find out the name of the defendant's current or last lawyer. If he was or is in the process of appealing his case in any way, chances are there is some lawyer of record for him. The court where the trial happened should know if there was an appeal or not.
Another option would be to contact the defendant directly and let him figure out what he wants to do with your information.
