## Description

The Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) is an independent organization that investigates criminal cases where individuals believe they have been wrongly convicted or sentenced. Operating completely impartially, the CCRC is not affiliated with the government, courts, police, or prosecution, and does not work for anyone applying for a case review. Their primary goal is to ensure justice by overturning wrongful convictions or reducing sentences. Based in Birmingham, the CCRC has jurisdiction across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Their investigations cover cases from Magistrates' Court, Crown Court, Youth Court, and Military Courts. If the CCRC identifies significant new evidence or a major issue that affects the safety of a conviction or sentence, they can refer the case back to the appeal courts. With special legal powers, the CCRC can obtain documents from public and private bodies, analyze evidence, consult with scientific experts, and interview witnesses. Equality and inclusion are at the core of their operations, ensuring discrimination plays no part in their services. Through ongoing training, their staff remains up-to-date on equality issues, providing equal opportunities for all.
