Pursuant
to Conn. General Statutes Section 46b-124(e), the victim now has
the same rights of access to the court file in juvenile court as
a victim in adult criminal court. The victim does not have access
to any privileged material (especially privileged communications
between doctor and patient), unless there is consent to disclose.
However, the victim has the right to be notified of and to receive
information regarding procedural posture of the case, the record
of the case on file, the police report, the delinquent's name and
address, and the names and addresses of the delinquent's parents.
The victim cannot use the released material in civil action for
damages, but may use the released material to uncover evidence which
is admissible in the civil case.
