Reply to comment by Technicolor_Reindeer in Maryland Court of Appeals reinstates Adnan Syed's murder conviction by nowhathappenedwas

But that doesn’t explain why Lee has anything to do with it. If the conviction is no more why does Lee have anything to do with Syed? I get that Lee might be invested in the idea that Syed is to blame, but he is not the judge or a jury. So why does he need time to be there at all. If she had no family at all, this would be over.

I understand the what, just not the why.

Victims's rights laws in Maryland.

The victims family is supposed to receive adequate notice to attend and be given an opportunity to speak.
