Appeals Self-Help Clinic - This is a brief advice clinic for people who are representing themselves in appeals to the Minnesota Court of Appeals or Minnesota Supreme Court. This clinic is a joint initiative of the Appellate Practice Section of the Minnesota State Bar Association and the Minnesota State Law Library. Clinic attorneys are volunteers and are not endorsed or approved by the Minnesota Judicial Branch.
This free brief advice clinic is held once per month on the 3rd Thursday of the month from 1:30 pm - 4:30 pm. Currently, this clinic is a telephone clinic only. The phone clinic involves a 30-minute consultation with an attorney over the phone.
Clients must have a case that is appealable to the Minnesota Court of Appeals or Minnesota Supreme Court to attend the clinic.
