Crime victim's rights; allowing crime victims to request review of proposed plea agreements; effective date.

Summary

The bill lets a victim or their representative ask a district court judge to review any plea deal presented to a special or associate district judge before it is accepted. It requires prosecutors to give victims notice of the agreement and the hearing date. The judge’s review is final, but it does not give victims party status or a right to appeal the plea.
