Description
EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge. Expeditious review of criminal convictions should be the norm. Review must come quickly in order to relieve those in prison of the continuing effects of a wrongful conviction. A day in jail cannot be reclaimed. And if the error is one that can be repaired in a second trial, a prompt decision is essential so that this second trial will yield an accurate result. Memory and time pass together. This may harm the prosecutor in some cases, the defendant in others. In either case delay is the enemy of truth.
