Justice Manual § 9-110.816
Post-Indictment Duties—Section 1959
Once the indictment or information has been approved and filed, it is the duty of the prosecuting attorney to submit to the Violent Crime and Racketeering Section a copy bearing the seal of the clerk of the court. In addition, the attorney should keep the Violent Crime and Racketeering Section informed of any unusual legal problems that arise in the course of the case, so those problems can be considered in providing guidance to other prosecutors.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
