Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Mexico
Appeal
I want to appeal a criminal case that has new evidence. Need to know what to appeal it under.
In November 2003, plaintiff was arrested pursuant to an arrest warrant in
Otero County, New Mexico, and charged with nine criminal counts. A jury
convicted him of one count of false imprisonment and one count of tampering
with evidence, and the trial court sentenced him to three years� incarceration. His
attempts to overturn his conviction were unsuccessful on direct appeal and on
both state and federal habeas review. He was released from jail in March 2006.
Defendants without prejudice, holding that because plaintiff had not overturned his conviction, his � 1983 claims for malicious prosecution against the County
Defendants had not accrued.
Do I appeal under the � 1983 or is there some other way to appeal these convictions?
