    Job Description


    The Oklahoma Indigent Defense System (OIDS) is a state agency responsible for implementing the Indigent Defense Act by providing trial, appellate and post-conviction criminal defense services to persons who have been judicially determined to be entitled to legal counsel.

    OIDS is currently seeking an Appellate Defense Counsel in our Appellate Program, Norman office.

    The Appellate Program consists of two Divisions, both of which provide representation when appointed by state district courts to indigent clients in appeals to the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals.

    Appointments arise from convictions resulting in incarceration or a death sentence at jury trial or bench trial, pleas of guilty or no contest, as well as probation revocation, acceleration, and drug court termination cases.

    The division also represents individuals appealing from certifications to stand trial as a youthful offender or as an adult, or denial of certification to be treated as a juvenile; appealing decisions to bridge individuals from the youthful offender system to the Department of Corrections; and appealing delinquency adjudications.

    In cases where a death sentence has been imposed, the Program assigns counsel from separate Divisions for the preparation of capital direct appeal briefing and oral argument and for the concurrent, statutory state post-conviction litigation.

    Counsel in both capital and non-capital cases direct investigation as necessary and must have the ability to work as part of a team.

    Basic Purpose


    The Attorney job focuses on all aspects of perfecting an appeal in the Court of Criminal Appeals; thorough review of the trial record; developing and implementing case theory and strategy; identifying legal issues; extensive research and analysis; drafting legal briefs and pleadings; conducting extra-record investigations as necessary; identification, selection, and preparation of expert witnesses as necessary; and, when ordered, appearing at evidentiary hearings at the district court level or oral argument before the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals.
