Legal Question in Criminal Law in North Carolina

If this case is in Yadkin County, it is highly doubtful you are dealing with the elected DA, Tom Horner. More likely you are dealing with an ADA. The ADA in charge of prosecuting the case will handle the matter as they see fit and generally in line with the elected DA's policies. For certain crimes, victims do have some rights - you can check these out at http://www.ncdistrictattorney.org/23/victimrights.html However, for all practical purposes, these 'rights' are nothing more that feel good fluffery - they in no way restrict the ADA from prosecuting the case in the manner they see fit dispute your input. Most elected DA's are aware of the need to be sensitive to victims in terms of getting re-elected and you will likely have more luck getting heard in that regard rather than through your so called 'victim's rights'. Best of luck to you!
