Focusing on the unique approach to legal documentation, this work transforms appellate briefs into poetry, emphasizing the narrative of factual evidence while maintaining ethical standards. It consists of three parts: a Statement of Facts detailing trial evidence, a Statement of the Case outlining procedural history, and an Argument presenting claims of error. By creatively reproducing these legal texts, the author sheds light on the complexities of the justice system, ensuring anonymity where needed while engaging readers in a poetic exploration of legal narratives.
