Revealing Prosecutorial Overreach We put resources in the hands of defenders on the frontlines of the fight against federal overreach.

NACDL responded with the Criminal Case Tracker — a powerful, searchable database that exposes abnormal prosecutions, arms defense attorneys with key filings and rulings, and helps lawyers, journalists, and policymakers track troubling enforcement trends in real time.
