The Alan Morrison
Supreme Court Assistance Project

The Alan Morrison Supreme Court Assistance Project (SCAP) has the unique mission of offering free, pro bono legal assistance at the pre-certiorari stage, both to oppose petitions for certiorari in order to protect public interest victories in lower courts, and also to file petitions for certiorari asking the Supreme Court for review of important open legal questions. SCAP also frequently provides assistance in public interest cases at the merits stage, both helping on briefs and conducting moot courts. Click here for further description.

Because Public Citizen does not accept funds from corporations, professional associations or government agencies, we can remain independent and follow the truth wherever it may lead. But that means we depend on the generosity of concerned citizens like you for the resources to fight on behalf of the public interest. If you would like to help us in our fight, click here.
