Brady and Giglio Material – Transparency in Motion for Discovery in NC

Brady RuleThe following legal reference materials are in addition to those previously posted by our law firm.  While discovery materials pursuant to Brady v. Maryland supplement the NC criminal laws relevant to voluntary discovery or a Motion for Discovery, they are technically distinct from the State providing Giglio content.

One way to think of it is that, generally speaking, all Giglio v. United States content likely falls within the Brady Rule, but not all Brady materials are Giglio disclosures.  Brady has to do with the voluntary disclosure of favorable information that may be exculpatory in nature.
