In every state there is a powerful Judiciary. This group of men and women are charged by the state to make critical decisions that can authorize a search, remove a bill passed by the Legislature, or put a person to death. As with other branches of government, it is the Arizona Constitution that limits and controls the power of the Judiciary. Review the Crime Victim's Bill of Rights (Article 2, Section 2.1 of the Arizona Constitution) and elucidate how it impacts the power of the Judiciary in Arizona?

    Victims' rights in Arizona have undergone dramatic changes since the enactment of the Victims' Bill of Rights. For victims of crime in Arizona, greater protections exist now than ever before. Decisions by Arizona courts, in conjunction with decisions by the 9th Circuit and the United States Supreme Court, continue to shape the meaning and scope of victims' rights. No longer pushed aside and forgotten by the system designed to protect them, crime victims have reclaimed their place and their voice in the criminal justice system. In the years to come, Arizona courts may be called upon to decide some of the remaining important unresolved victims' rights issues. The Arizona legislature may be called upon to enact additional rules defining and preserving the specific rights of crime victims. And, perhaps most critically, the people of Arizona may be called upon to lend their support to a Victims' Rights Amendment to the United States Constitution. A review of Victims' Bill of Rights case law demonstrates that Arizona courts largely uphold the underlying spirit and intent of the Victims' Bill of Rights, recognizing the interests and rights of crime victims.
