August 17-20, 2010 in Washington, DC

The National Institute on the Prosecution of Domestic Violence II (NIPDV II) is a three and one-half day advanced training course designed for prosecutors who have previously attended the original National Institute on the Prosecution of Domestic Violence (NIPDV I).  NIPDV II builds on the trial advocacy skills and concepts developed during NIPDV I and integrates emerging legal issues and nuanced challenges, such as an offenders’ use of technology in stalking cases, that front line prosecutors face. This advanced course is designed to simulate an intensive, felony-level domestic violence caseload. Throughout the week, participants will manage several cases from initial evaluation through trial and sentencing by prioritizing resources; analyzing charging decisions; overcoming complex defense tactics; effectively using medical and psychological expert consultants; communicating with the media; and addressing ethical considerations.

NIPDV II utilizes a highly interactive team format to engage and challenge prosecutors from across the country by exposing them to the expertise of our distinguished faculty and encouraging them to learn from each other’s collective experience. The mock case files the participants will use are based on actual domestic violence cases and are designed to encourage participants to confront and overcome increasingly difficult challenges.  NIPDV II participants will be expected to make hard decisions, with limited resources, that guide the pretrial investigation and preparation of their cases. The decisions participants and teams make during each exercise will determine what evidence is available to them, affect their ability to make informed and appropriate charging and trial decisions, and ultimately impact their ability to hold offenders accountable and keep victims and communities safe.  Participants will leave NIPDV II prepared to implement thorough case evaluation and preparation techniques and innovative trial strategies to achieve justice in domestic violence cases.
