Proposed Amendments to Victims' Rights Rules Dilute CVRA Protections The document details internal advisory committee discussions that weaken victim rights provisions in proposed Rule 60(b). While it highlights procedural changes and potential impact on victims, it does not name high‑profile officials, financial flows, or foreign actors, nor does it suggest actionable investigative leads beyond monitoring rule‑making. Key insights: Committee changed “forthwith” to “promptly,” potentially slowing victim relief.; Omitted victim’s representative right to assert rights in proposed Rule 60(b)(2).; Removed CVRA’s restitution qualification and venue provision in Rule 60(b)(5) and (b)(4).
