Criminal Procedure: Adjudication (4th Edition) – eBook

Criminal Procedure Adjudication, Fourth Edition

Written in a student-friendly manner, the 4th edition of Criminal Procedure: Adjudication eschews excessive reliance on rhetorical questions and law review excerpts in favor of comprehensive exploration of black letter law and current policy issues. Authored by a pair of well-respected criminal and constitutional law scholars, Criminal Procedure: Adjudication 4E utilizes a chronological approach that guides students through criminal procedure doctrine, from prosecution initiation to habeas corpus relief. In addition to presenting the perspectives from various stakeholders (e.g. defense attorneys, judges, prosecutors, and victims), the authors take care to provide students with useful, practice-oriented materials, including pleadings and motions papers. Criminal Procedure: Adjudication teaches students the steps of criminal adjudication while addressing current issues in modern criminal procedure debates.

New to the Fourth Edition:

The Fourth Edition has been thoroughly updated to provide analysis of important, recent decisions in the area of Criminal Procedure, including several decisions from the Supreme Court’s most recent terms and discussion of policy issues at the forefront of criminal law.

Mississippi (sentencing); Bucklew v. Precythe (the death penalty); and Gamble v. United States (the dual sovereignty doctrine in double jeopardy)
