After the criminal judgment, the file can be handed over to the family.

Legal analysis: no, generally speaking, defenders can consult and copy relevant files during the prosecution stage of the procuratorate, but the defendant's family members do not have this right.

Legal basis: Article 38 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC). From the date when the people's procuratorate examines and prosecutes the case, the defense lawyer may consult, extract and copy the case file. Other defenders may also consult, extract and copy the above materials with the permission of the people's court or the people's procuratorate.
