Robertson Law Secures Hearing Before Washington Clemency and Pardon Board

Posted by Ryan Robertson on Jul 29, 2026 | 0 Comments

Robertson Law is pleased to announce it has secured a hearing for our client before the Washington Clemency and Pardon Board. The hearing date will be announced at a later date. All pardon hearings are broadcast live on TVW.org.

The power to issue a Governor's pardon is found in the Washington State Constitution Article III Section 9. The Clemency and Pardon Board reviews pardon applications on a regular basis to make recommendations to the Governor. The board's primary focus is to identify applications demonstrating extraordinary circumstances which would justify issuing a pardon in specific cases.  

We are excited for our client, and we look forward to the opportunity to present our client's case to the board.

You can watch prior Robertson Law pardon hearings from the front page of our website. We have placed links to these hearing on the page. We encourage you to watch so you can understand what these hearing look like. 

If you have any questions about the Washington Governor pardon process, please call or send us a general inquiry from our website. We are happy to answer your questions.
