Interim Claim or Supplemental Interim Claim - Submit Before Opinion Issues
ADI cannot recommend payment on an Interim Claim or a Supplemental Interim Claim after the Court of Appeal issues the opinion. After an opinion issues, payment only on a Final Claim can be recommended. Please prepare an Interim Claim or a Supplemental Interim Claim well before the Court of Appeal has submitted the case for decision.
When initiating a new case by filing an original petition -- including a writ petition or petition for review -- select "File" and follow the on-screen prompts for making a submission.
Note: Whether filing a petition for review in a criminal, juvenile (delinquency or dependency), or civil commitment case, select "Criminal Petition for Review" as the "Case Type". Selecting "Civil Petition for Review" will result in a $750 filing fee.
Our staff has transitioned to a hybrid model. All staff attorneys are available via phone or email. Our front office support staff remains onsite, in addition to a paralegal of the day.
For the time being, ADI's physical office remains closed.
Please continue to email transcripts and documents to the staff attorney assigned to your case, or if unknown, to our e-service address at eservice-court@adi-sandiego.com.
If you have specific questions, feel free to email Lynelle Hee at lkh@adi-sandiego.com.
Special interim claims due to coronavirus -- These policies are now permanent.
These policies are now permanent.
Create an Early Interim to submit a pre-AOB claim when the record is over 1500 pages long or the augmented or corrected record has not been filed for 90 days. Claim time only for record review. Do not claim any other time or expense.
Create a Supplemental Interim to submit a claim after you have filed the reply brief. The claim is cumulative and the time and expenses you claimed on prior claims will populate. Do not make changes to the prepopulated entries. Add time only for reviewing the respondent's brief and preparing the reply brief. Do not add any other time or expense to the claim.
Please contact Lynelle Hee at lkh@adi-sandiego.com if you have questions, need assistance, or are seeking project authorization to submit other claims due to financial hardship.
