In the US you're refer:
The Innocence Project
Barry Scheck and Peter Neufeld co-founded and are Co-Directors of the Innocence Project at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law.
As of May 28, 2008, 217 wrongful convictions have been overturned by DNA testing thanks to the Project and other legal organizations.

In Japan
The lawyers for Toshikazu Sugaya did not argue just on the exclusion of their clients DNA evidence - 17 years ago when Mr. Sugaya was convicted. His lawyers pointed out the absurdity of Japans justice system having a nearly 100 percent of indictments resulted in convictions.
