Overview

The May 2022 United States Supreme Court decision in Shinn v. Ramirez made it exceedingly for our clients to prevail in federal habeas proceedings on any claim, no matter how meritorious, that was not properly raised and fully litigated in state post-conviction proceedings. This session will cover the many steps a conscientious, zealous PCRA practitioner must take to maximize our clients’ chances of success in state court and thereby protect their legal interests in habeas proceedings.

Recorded in June 2026.
