Re: Writ
What kind of writ are you looking to file? Mandamus? Habeas Corpus? Look in actuality, you really need to see a lawyer who knows about the prison system. A criminal lawyer who handles prison petitions may be your guy. If you need a reccomendation to one in your area, call or e-mail me, or contact the NYS Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers located in Manhattan. They will have the name of someone good.
Good Luck.
