The Florida criminal appellate lawyer Guy Seligman announces he is reviewing criminal cases where blood evidence against a citizen relied on the Broward Medical Examiner's lab work. FORT LAUDERDALE (CBSMiami) – Drug toxicology tests taken by the former Broward Medical Examiner are now under fire and it may lead to new trials for defendants involved in DUI cases involved alleged drug use. “This could be a very big deal,” said Broward’s Public Defender Howard Finkelstein. “It certainly seems to me that someone was not doing the job that was supposed to be done.” Broward’s new Medical Examiner Craig Mallack discovered under the former ME, the office didn’t follow proper scientific procedures to validate thousands of drug toxicology tests prior to August 24, 2012. Mallack told State Attorney Mike Satz on Tuesday that he immediately shut down his lab and referred new cases to an independent lab.

In a news release, the Medical Examiner’s Office said 3600 drug screen tests over the past 10 years may be impacted. Mallack replaced former Medical Examiner Dr. Joshua Perper in April. Perper had been M.E. for 17 years. In August, Mallack discovered the possible problem during an operational review. In a letter to Satz that Mallack showed to CBS4′s Peter D’Oench, he said, “There is no definitive evidence to suggest the actual results reported were inaccurate; however, the methods used to extract the information were not previously scientifically validated.” That could have been a critical flaw in the testing. Finkelstein told D’Oench, “We do know that the...

As a criminal lawyer and criminal appeals lawyer in Ft Lauderdale for over 2 decades, I have had the opportunity to defend all types of criminal cases. I have also seen errors within the trial process that have lead to a successful criminal appeal. These errors must be at the judicial level and the must be so serious as to have resulted in a different verdict. If you feel the trial was not fair, and who would not, Fort Lauderdale criminal appeals attorney can attempt to get the verdict overturned thru the criminal appeals process. You cannot appeal simply because you think the jury came to the wrong conclusion. In order to overturn a conviction, or throw out a sentence, the appeals court must find a judicial error that was so prejudicial that the verdict likely would have been different. This is a complex process and must be handled by an experienced criminal appellate lawyer. Below is an interesting article taken from the Florida Bar website. The criminal appeals process is highly detailed and costly. To discuss your criminal appeal call my law office today. The Appellate Decision-Making Process by by Raymond T. (Tom) Elligett, Jr. and Judge John M. Scheb The appellate practitioners spend hours preparing briefs, and when available, oral arguments. When the “curtain closes,” the advocates leave the case with the court. Counsel may feel his or her work is done, and it is. But thinking about how appellate judges decide cases may assist in presenting the appeal and, for appellants, analyzing whether it stands a real chance of success. This article examines aspects of the...
