Plain-language change summary

The amendment adds a reference to "Public Law 116-182" and specifies that the judge in a criminal proceeding will issue both an oral and written order confirming the prosecutor's disclosure obligations under Brady v. Maryland. This change emphasizes the importance of these obligations and clarifies that a model order can be promulgated by the district court as needed. The practical effect is that courts now have a clearer framework for ensuring compliance with disclosure requirements in criminal cases.
