Lecturer – Innocence Clinic
College of Law
University of Nebraska
The University of Nebraska College of Law seeks a lecturer to develop and direct a new Innocence Clinic. The clinic, supported by a grant from the Bureau of Justice Assistance, will focus on reviewing, investigating, and litigating post-conviction claims of actual innocence.
The clinic director must maintain an active caseload while working with and providing oversight for law students conducting records collection and investigation. Casework includes examining issues related to eyewitness misidentification, false confessions, faulty forensic science, and other common causes of wrongful conviction. In each case, the clinic director will review existing case files, pursue new evidence that could establish innocence, and litigate for relief where appropriate.
Duties and Responsibilities
This is a full-time grant-funded position and includes a two-year appointment as a lecturer. The continuation of the appointment after that time will depend on the candidate’s success and continued funding. To ensure the clinic can be offered in the fall semester of 2024, the director should be available to start as early as possible. Salary is commensurate with experience.
