Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

A writ is not a form you check off. It is a custom crafted pleading package with declarations, points and authorities, and legal arguments supported by citations. You can expect to pay at least several thousand dollars to counsel to do so. Or you could go to the law library and start learning criminal procedure and pleadings to do it yourself. If serious about hiring counsel to help in this, and if you are still within the time limits, feel free to contact me.

You haven't provided enough information. There are different kinds of writs, and there are different offices where they could be filed.

Feel free to contact me directly if you want to discuss your case. I'm certified by the State Bar of California as a specialist in appellate practice -- a certification held by fewer than 300 of the 200,000-plus lawyers in California. I also have many years of experience the field.

First of all, you should not be representing yourself. You already have some terms confused. A writ is an order that a judge signs, that tells someone else to do or refrain from doing something. The paperwork that you file is actually called a petition for a writ, and it depends on what you want. If you are wanting the superior court judge to do something or refrain from doing something, you would file that petition for a writ with the Court of Appeal governing that judicial district. There are many tricky rules governing writ practice, and I suggest you speak to a competent attorney.
