I am accused of over payment of food stamps. I did not even receive any such thing. I have reported fraud but they will not even investigate. this is from 5 years ago. the hearing officer is actually a person that started collections in 2009. I cant get any legal help because I have no money. I am disabled and now dcf is taking $200 per month from my disability checks. I must file an appeal!

I'm sorry, but I don't have any answer. I'm going to re-tag your question so - hopefully - you can get an answer. Good luck.

If you are charged criminally with public assistance fraud they will appoint a public defender to represent you. However, if they have simply made a finding through the administrative hearing division, you will have to handle the appeal yourself. Good luck.

No disrespect intended but you may do yourself more harm than good by trying to do something yourself. As another lawyer suggested, call Bay Area Legal Services, it's really your only chance.
