Welcome to the Criminal Defense Resource Center at the Michigan State Appellate Defender Office in Detroit, Michigan. The Criminal Defense Resource Center (CDRC) of the State Appellate Defender Office was formed in 1977 in response to a growing demand from the private bar for help with criminal cases. Recognizing the collective legal expertise of SADO attorneys who practice only criminal law, attorneys throughout Michigan quickly came to depend on the CDRC for support. When federal grant funding elapsed after a few years, CDRC funding was assumed by SADO. It is currently funded through a combination of the SADO budget, user fees, and grants from the Michigan Justice Training Commission, Michigan State Bar Foundation, and federal Bureau of Justice Assistance.
