The lawyer’s process begins with a thorough audit of all case materials, including charge sheets, forensic reports, and trial transcripts. Jyotiranjan Kurup then drafts a concise yet comprehensive petition that weaves legal precedents, constitutional provisions, and factual nuances into a single narrative.
