Summary
This document is an extract from a 2007 Utah Law Review article, page 894, likely submitted by attorney David Schoen during a House Oversight investigation. The text provides a legal argument regarding the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) and Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 12.1, criticizing an Advisory Committee proposal that would allow courts to order the disclosure of a victim's address to a defendant without adequately protecting the victim's safety. It argues that current proposals violate the CVRA's mandate to protect victims from the accused.
