    Default Re: Who Hires Writ of Habeas Corpus Counsel

    I know of no state that provides an attorney for post conviction relief attempts, and most habeas corpus petitions are done post conviction. That’s the reason why so many prisoner habeas petitions are done pro se.
    CA does all the time as long as the petition is related to their conviction and not prison conditions. For those type of habeas petitions, there are non-profits that will sometimes take the issue on. Hence the reason CA prisons were under federal oversight because of over-crowding and other conditions. BUT, the petitions are almost always initiated pro se.
