Rights Enforcement Toolkit

The Toolkit has three parts: Pretrial, Trial, Post-Trial. Whether you are entering a case pretrial, during trial, or post-trial, because victims’ rights can arise at any time, reviewing all of the tools is critical. The tools come in the form of video tutorials of rights, flowcharts that guide you through the how and when of asserting rights, checklists to ensure you are making all of the best arguments, and sample pleadings.
