Abstract: The Crime Victims’ Rights
Act of 2004, 18 U.S.C. 3771 (CVRA), sets
forth the rights of a federal crime victim
to file a complaint against any
Department of Justice employee who
violated or failed to provide rights
established under the CVRA. The
Department of Justice has created the
Office of the Victims’ Rights
Ombudsman to receive and investigate
complaints filed by federal crime
victims against its employees and has
implemented ‘‘Procedures to Promote
Compliance with Crime Victims’ Rights
Obligations,’’ 28 CFR 45.10. The
complaint process is not designed for
the correction of specific victims’ rights
violations but is instead used to request
corrective or disciplinary action against
Department of Justice employees who
may have failed to provide rights to
crime victims. The Department of
Justice will investigate the allegations in
