Thank you, and thank you very much to both witnesses.
I want to start with a question of something that's preoccupying me with respect to the legislation, which is the prerequisite that people need to have exhausted their appeals process before they can make use of this legislation.
I'd like to ask both witnesses. I understand, first in the North Carolina context, that this is not a requirement. People need not have exhausted their appeals processes if they can provide a preponderance of evidence, show you that they are actually innocent and provide factual evidence of innocence. Is that correct?
