Evidence review for New Jersey attorneys
New Jersey mandated body-worn cameras for all law enforcement officers, making it one of the most comprehensive states for body-cam requirements. Defense attorneys handle significant video evidence volumes.
Body-Cam Laws in New Jersey
New Jersey AG Directive 2021-5 mandated body-worn cameras for all sworn law enforcement officers statewide. New Jersey was one of the first states to require universal body-cam deployment. The directive includes detailed recording requirements, retention policies, and access provisions.
Discovery Rules & Video Evidence
New Jersey criminal discovery was reformed by the Criminal Discovery Act (2020), which requires open-file discovery. Prosecutors must disclose all evidence within specific timelines, including body-cam footage. The reform was one of the most significant expansions of discovery rights in the country.
