Paula Rosin, Chief Appellate Attorney
The five-attorney appellate division is located at 160 Pine Street,
Providence, RI 02903. The appellate division handles all appeals
to the Rhode Island Supreme Court of cases tried by public defender
attorneys as well as those cases referred by the private bar on
behalf of indigent appellants; while criminal appeals are the bulk
of the division’s work, appeals attorneys represent clients
in juvenile and parental rights matters as well. Cases are transferred
to the appellate division after sentencing or judgment. The Public
Defender maintains an extensive law library at its main office,
which supplements the use of electronic research.
