We heard Mr. Moore cite North Carolina and the U.K. In neither of those cases does the commission have an impediment where it's not allowed to consider cases because of failure to appeal. My intention, as Mr. Garrison's was, is to remove that impediment because it is the most vulnerable defendants who wouldn't have the legal resources or the legal advice to necessarily appeal a case.
If somebody was wrongfully convicted and whatever burden of proof we agree to in this bill is met, it shouldn't be that the commission can't even consider the case because the person didn't appeal to the court of appeal. We left in the bill an ability, if you appeal to the court of appeal and not to the Supreme Court, to allow the commission to consider it. All this does is remove that impediment if the person didn't appeal the case to the court of appeal. However, it's on exactly the same terms and the same grounds as was in the bill to begin with.
