Legal Question in Appeals and Writs in Pennsylvania
Need legal citations re granting of appeal for ineffective counsel
Need to know where to look on the internet to find cases wherein court has granted appellant's petition for new trial due to ineffective counsel. Defendant's appeal to court of conviction denied on basis of untimeliness. Need pursuasive cases.

LawGuru has a legal research page. Also try
any law library (Cornell/UCLA) or federal government
sites such as Congress/Senate. Search the federal
or state judiciary sites too.
Search "criminal law" in search engines, or
"ineffective assistance of counsel".
