Member Duties : The Office of the Appellate Defender (OAD) seeks a VISTA member to bolster OAD’s ability to manage and distill information from our cases, court decisions, and overall practice. This data is critically relevant to our clients and the functioning of the criminal justice system overall – e.g., whether the law is fairly applied by prosecutors, police officers, defense attorneys, and judges. Increasing OAD’s capacity to synthesize this data, and to preserve institutional knowledge, will improve our individual case litigation and foster a greater understanding of broader patterns impacting New York City’s criminal justice system, as well as increase the efficiency and efficacy of our practice. The VISTA member will help develop processes and database tools that our attorneys can implement to provide our clients and their communities more immediate relief from illegal, misguided and/or failed laws, policies and procedures.
