Summary
This document is a page from a 2005 Brigham Young University Law Review article discussing the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) and Rule 11. It argues for a rule change requiring prosecutors to notify victims of plea negotiations and for courts to consider victims' views before accepting plea agreements. The document bears the name of attorney David Schoen and a House Oversight Bates stamp, suggesting it was part of an investigation into the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein Non-Prosecution Agreement, which was criticized for violating these exact principles of victim notification.
