The Andrews are joined on this episode with Jason Niehaus, a partner at the law firm of Bodkin, Niehaus, Dorris & Jolley, to discuss his work on a groundbreaking appeal that every defender should be familiar with. His work in Watkins v. State expanded the Michael Morton Act by defining the work “material”. Read the Opinion here. Jason has been gracious enough to share his 39.14 discovery requests. Jason reminds us to get our heads out of our asses and that the law is not a meritocracy…meaning that there is no guarantee that the judge you are appearing in front of is smarter than you; prepare for the case like you’re the expert, not your judge. Jason can be contacted directly through his website.
