the right to privacy and to be treated with respect, fairness, and dignity; the right to information about the rights and services available to crime victims; the right to notification in a timely manner of all proceedings in the case; the right to be present and heard at all court proceedings, including the right to petition the court to protect the victim’s rights; the right to a prompt conclusion of the case; to refuse discovery requests made by the accused, except as authorized by Article I, Section 10 of the Ohio constitution; the right to reasonable protection from the accused; the right to notice of the release or escape of the accused; and the right to restitution.
The proposed amendment would not establish a cause of action for damages or compensation against the state or any political subdivision.
