The Death Penalty Clinic was founded in 2001 on the principle that the right to a fair trial and equal protection under the law are core societal values. Through individual representation and impact litigation, the clinic puts this principle into practice. Our mission is to help students develop outstanding legal skills and to serve clients facing capital punishment. Our students gain a strong social justice orientation and the skills necessary to provide vigorous, professional, and high-level representation to their clients.

For more than two decades, clinic faculty and students have advocated on behalf of clients facing capital punishment in state and federal proceedings in states such as Alabama, Arizona, California, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, and Texas. In some cases the clinic directly represents clients throughout post-conviction and clemency proceedings. In others, the clinic serves as co-counsel to investigate or litigate aspects of the capital case in which the clinic has particular expertise. The clinic has also filed amicus curiae briefs in the United States Supreme Court and California Supreme Court in cases involving challenges to discriminatory jury selection, race discrimination in the administration of the death penalty, and methods of execution.

The companion seminar engages students in the relevant substantive capital punishment law; habeas corpus practice and procedure; and the fundamentals of death penalty litigation, including fact investigation, interviewing skills, and the development of mitigation evidence.
