Right to See Evidence

The defendant's right to see absolutely every single thing that the prosecution has against them well in advance of trial.

What Right Law Group attorneys say

the reason i bring that up is a lot of the times in these tv shows like law and order you'll see people walk into court waving some new piece of evidence and the prosecutor will say and then there's this smoking gun i found last night while i was asleep that's not how it goes in the real world we have the right to see absolutely every single thing that the prosecution has against you well in advance and if they pull some shenanigans like that walking into court last minute with some huge piece of evidence we have a pretty good chance of getting your case thrown out because that is not legal in the state of colorado

make sure that if you have a criminal defense attorney you have access to that discovery because you are the one being charged you have the right to see everything that they're bringing against you and make sure you have an attorney or a firm that will give you all that evidence and make sure that you have time to review it at your own pace so that you fully understand what is being brought against you
