Petition | Should Justice have an expiration date? | Change.org ~~ A large number of people are serving long sentences in the US prisons who were convicted in blatently

unfair trials, yet who are barred from seeking the basic justice of a new, FAIR trial through

federal review, due to this extremely unjust "expiration date" This needs to change in the simple

interests of justice. Whether it takes a person one or twenty years to bring their legitimate

claims of violations of their constitutional rights to the federal courts, they should have at

least ONE opportunity to have their case reviewed, to ensure theirs was a fair trial. Simply

refusing to even consider the claims because they are "out of time" results in far too many

injustices.
