Upcoming events
 On September 5, 2018, the Supreme Court of Virginia approved new rules regarding criminal discovery. After many years of work by VACDL members and our allies advocating for reform, a new playing field will emerge when these rules go into effect on July 1, 2019. To read the letter from Chief Justice Donald W. Lemons and the new rules, click below: Supreme Court of VA adoption of discovery rules 9-5-18.pdf Blog posts
We support the efforts to reform discovery rules in Virginia to ensure just and fair trials for all accused of criminal offenses.
