Sec. 77.5  No private remedies.



    The principles set forth herein, and internal office procedures 

adopted pursuant hereto, are intended solely for the guidance of 

attorneys for the government. They are not intended to, do not, and may 

not be relied upon to create a right or benefit, substantive or 

procedural, enforceable at law by a party to litigation with the United 

States, including criminal defendants, targets or subjects of criminal 

investigations, witnesses in criminal or civil cases (including civil 

law enforcement proceedings), or plaintiffs or defendants in civil 

investigations or litigation; or any other person, whether or not a 

party to litigation with the United States, or their counsel; and shall 

not be a basis for dismissing criminal or civil charges or proceedings 

or for excluding relevant evidence in any judicial or administrative 

proceeding. Nor are any limitations placed on otherwise lawful 

litigative prerogatives of the Department of Justice as a result of this 

part.
