Understanding New York
Appeals & Post-Conviction Relief
You could be facing years in prison due to judicial error, ineffective counsel, or suppressed evidence. In New York, appeals must be filed within 30 days of sentencing and require a detailed legal brief. Buffalo appellate courts won’t reconsider your case unless errors are clearly outlined and argued. Post-conviction relief is available, but the window is narrow and complex.

Appeals from Buffalo or Erie County cases go to the Appellate Division, Fourth Department in Rochester. Expect a highly technical process focused on trial errors or legal missteps. No new evidence is introduced unless you’re filing a motion under CPL § 440. A precise brief and legal research are essential to getting your appeal heard and ruled favorably.
