Tired of simply begging the federal prosecutor for the discovery and materials you need? This session will explore the advantages to taking a proactive, rather than a passive, approach to using multiple pretrial motions in combination with third party subpoenas to get more of the discovery and evidence you need. Learn from the combined perspective of a trial lawyer and a death penalty postconviction attorney about other avenues, in addition to Rule 16, to obtain discoverable evidence that might be helpful if considered while mounting a defense to any federal criminal prosecution.
