More great work by the Innocence Project project. Thanks to them, Rosa Jimenez is free.
Prof news: I'm joining the Cardozo School of Law faculty! I'm excited to become a part of its rich scholarly community & to work w/ its talented students. It's bittersweet, as I must leave my colleagues & intellectual home at Brooklyn Law School. But I'll remain in touch w/ my many friends there.
Applauding Haiyun Damon-Feng!
This is some amazing work from our immigration justice clinic, and kudos to Lindsay Nash, Ellie Norton, and the clinic's tremendously hard-working students. Read about it here in the LA Times!
