State of Ga., 303 Ga. 428, 432 (1) n.5, 811 S.E.2d 378 (2018) (We also have jurisdiction of appeals from injunctions concerning proceedings in [murder cases].

Thus, the State contends that Presnell's rights were adequately protected, given that the Federal Defender had over six months to investigate and prepare for his clemency hearing between the exhaustion of Presnell's appellate rights in October 2021 when the United States Supreme Court denied his petition for certiorari in his federal habeas proceedings, see Presnell v.

We have previously explained: An interlocutory injunction is an extraordinary remedy, and the power to grant it must be prudently and cautiously exercised. However, to be effective, the decision to grant an interlocutory injunction must often be made under time constraints that do not allow for the careful deliberation and reflection that accompany a full trial on the merits. CJA panel attorneys who want to brainstorm specific ideas or legal issues on appointed cases are welcome to join us at the roundtable. The Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees an accused the right to representation by counsel in serious criminal prosecutions. Here, it is clear under the plain language of the GUETA that the Agreement constitutes a transaction under the Act and that the State and the Appellees are considered persons involved in that transaction. Therefore, the key question is whether the parties agreed to conduct the transaction by electronic means under OCGA 10-12-5 (b). 4. of Transp., 275 Ga. 827, 829 (2), 573 S.E.2d 389 (2002) (footnotes omitted). 51 Sleeper Street, 5th FloorBoston, MA 02210Phone: (617) 223-8061Fax: (617)639-9023, 116 Pleasant Street, Suite 430Easthampton, MA 01027Phone: (857) 331-2118, 22 Bridge StreetConcord, NH 03301Phone: (603) 226-7360Fax: (603) 371-9415, 10 Weybosset Street, 3rd FloorProvidence, RI 02903Phone: (401) 528-4281Fax: (401) 867-2814, We represent indigent defendants facing criminal charges in federal court, Our website intends to provide information regarding federal criminal practice to members of the Criminal Justice Act panels, other criminal defense attorneys practicing in federal court, and interested members of the public.

After discussing the proposed MOU with Arceneaux multiple times during the next two months, Graham called Arceneaux on April 14, 2021, to tell her that she would be receiving an e-mail from Burton memorializing the terms of the agreement.

In ruling that the threatened harm that the State would suffer if the injunction were granted was not outweighed by the threatened harm that the Appellees would suffer if the injunction were not granted, the trial court found that (1) the Appellees only sought to enforce the terms of an Agreement [that the State] drafted and agreed to in order that the Federal Defender could adequately prepare for its clients clemency proceedings and that (2) an interlocutory injunction would simply hold [the State] to [its] Agreement by postponing Mr. Presnell's execution warrant it would not stop him from being executed altogether..
