Public Defender Service
  • The Public Defender Service provides defense on a court-appointed basis for criminal (trial and appellate) and delinquency cases where the defendants and respondents are indigent adults and juveniles.
  • It maintains an office at St. Elizabeths Hospital for those facing involuntary civil commitment.
  • It has a parole division that represents almost all defendants charged with violating parole and facing revocation.
  • It provides assistance (not legal representation) to individuals who are seeking to seal their criminal records.
