Host Corrie Woods interviews attorney Brandy Grace Hoke to discuss Commonwealth v. Greer, which clarified when and how petitioners under the Post-Conviction Relief Act must seek and obtain new counsel to raise, and raise, claims of ineffective assistance of earlier postconviction counsel, on penalty of waiver. The case is required reading for anyone who practices in the postconviction space.
Show Notes:
- Greer builds on the Court's decision in Commonwealth v. Bradley, which held that petitioners can raise claims of ineffective assistance of prior postconviction counsel for the first time on appeal. In 2022, Corrie and Attorney Michael Wiseman discussed Bradley in an earlier episode.
- You can find the Court's opinion and Justice Donohue's concurring and dissenting opinion on SCOPABlog's June 2024 Docket Review.
