The Criminal Division represents the state in every felony case, including capital cases, appealed to the Supreme Court of Missouri and the three districts of the Missouri Court of Appeals (Eastern, Western and Southern). Each year, the division's attorneys litigate more than 900 felony appeals in those courts.
