Whether you are an experienced capital litigator or just starting out, ethics is a fundamental part of prosecuting any case, including those that are capital-eligible. With 32 years of trial experience under her belt, this webinar has Ms. Balkin walk attendees through the core principles that should guide the capital case prosecutor throughout their career.
As part of the Association of Prosecuting Attorneys’ Capital Litigation Improvement Project webinar series, Randy Udelman of the Arizona Crime Victim Rights Law Group presented on victim counsel coordination. Mr. Udelman outlined ways in which victim counsel facilitates the criminal process by interfacing between victim families. In addition, Mr. Udelman offered several sample hypothetical cases based on real facts—illustrating how to effectively meet victim needs in capital case prosecution. Mr. Udelman also answered several questions from the attendees at the end of the presentation.
