Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Criminal Law, Vol. 1 of 2 The Editor, after a careful examination of the text, concluded that any alteration was unnecessary. He has carefully examined all the recent cases, and inserted in the notes every case which has applied the principles laid down in the text decided since the appearance of the last edition. In this way citations to upward of nine thousand new cases have been made. At the end of each chapter, under the head of Points requested for the defence improperly refused, and erroneous charges, a state ment of cases designed as, Suggestions for the Defence, has been made. All those cases relating to the subject of a chapter in which a conviction has been set aside on appeal, either because the trial Judge has refused to affirm a point submitted by the defendant's attorney which ought to have been affirmed, or because there has been error in his charge to the Jury, have been collected and arranged. In every case the words of the point improperly refused or the erroneous charge are given. It is believed that a lawyer having a client to defend will find practical assistance in the preparation of his points from these collections of cases. It is thought that the addition of the date of the decision to the citation will be of use both to the busy lawyer, who desires to look at only the latest authorities, and to the student, who wishes to follow the development of the law.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Criminal Law as Now Administered in the United States, Vol. 1 of 2 In the development of our common law the functions of the text-writer necessarily change from time to time under chang ing circumstances. When authorities are few he may be to some extent a prophet and an originator; but as the ground is more fully covered in detail by judicial decisions, he necessarily limits himself more strictly to an orderly arrangement and con cise statement of that which has been determined; and finally when the number of adjudications on the subject which he is considering has become so great as to cover practically all the important questions which are likely to arise, his function is to put all in order and preserve a proper perspective which shall make general and well-established principles stand out boldly among the bewildering details of complicated cases, without obliterating distinctions which may be of the greatest im portance when they are pertinent, but would mislead if mag nified into prominent dividing lines. It is futile to speak of one of these functions as greater than another. The business of the text-writer is to make the law as available as possible to the lawyer, and he may well allow the direction and extent of the exercise of his individual talents to depend upon the nature and circumstances of the particular question under discussion.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

It then enumerates and discusses the various specific crimes that belong to these respective classes. Part three deals with criminal pleading and procedure. It discusses arrest and extradition, preliminary proceedings, in cluding bail; modes of accusation, including indictment, ar raignment and pleas; trial, and the various proceedings after verdict. The cases supporting the text have been selected with dis criminating care, and it is believed that they are sufficiently numerous and apt to serve the purpose intended.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Crimes and Misdemeanors, Vol. 2 of 2 In the case Of the Commonwealth v. Trimmer, 1 Mass. Rep. 476, it was decided that a fame-covert is not chargeable for a larceny jointly with her husband. And in the same case, that removing a plank which is loose, and is not fixed to the freehold in a partition wall of a building, is not a breaking within the statute. It appeared also in this case, that the goods stolen were the joint property Of Haley and one Emery, - and that in the indictment th'ey were alleged to be the property Of Haley only, whereupon Sedgwick, J. Said, if the cause proceeded, there must be an acquittal, as a conviction upon this indictment would be no bar to another prosecution. The defendants consenting to an amendment Of the indict ment, the cause proceeded. In the case Of the Commonwealth Brown, 4 Mass. Rep. 580, it was ruled that if one, to whom a wagon load Of goods consisting of several packages, is delivered to be transported from one place to another, fraudulently take away one Of the packages, such taking is felony, And per Parsons, C. J., I am Of Opinion, admitting the defendant to be a common carrier, and thus to have had a lawful custody of the goods, yet all the goods in the wagon were delivered to him as one mass or body, and his taking away one of the packages, was a separating of a part from the whole, and thus was determined the supposed privity of con tract; for the contract with him was not to carry the several packages of which the load was composed, but to carry the load in the state in which it was delivered to him.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Criminal Procedure, Vol. 1 The new matter on Specific Crimea - which ends With page 1708, - is thought in and of itself to justify this new edition. While it has been sought to bring out every point that has been adjudicated, and collect the cases, it must be borne in mind that most of the rulings cited, and a large proportion of the conflict pointed out, are due to statutory provisions in the various jurisdictions. The statute under which any particular decision was made should be carefully collated with the statute under which it is sought to be applied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Criminal Law and Criminal Procedure, Vol. 11: Including Criminal Evidence and Criminal Pleading; Also a Treatise on the Law of Evidence The subject of Criminal Law as presented herein is simply that of the ordinary text-book, abbreviated somewhat on account of the limited space in which to treat so important a subject. While in many instances the student will be impressed with the wisdom of the law, and the subtleness of the safeguards devised to protect the accused from being punished when guiltless, and the careful classification and definition of crimes to prevent oppression; yet it is clear that there are many offenses to-day going unpunished which future legislatures and courts will have to recognize and punish as serious crimes. It is a common saying, with more than a grain of truth therein, that he who steals ten dollars will likely go to prison, while he who steals a million will go to Congress. Perhaps there is more adroitness in the theft of the larger sum, but the common sense of mankind - the true source of all law in the abstract - must soon recognize that the latter offense is as much a crime against society as the former.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Criminal Law, Vol. 1: Instruction Paper If the party defrauded is also guilty of a violation of the law, he, too, should be prosecuted, rather than his offense should serve as a shield to the other's crime. The offense is committed against the public, and not against the individual. The guilty party is prosecuted in the interest of the people of the state, and not in the interest of the party defrauded of his property. There is no principle of law that will bar the state from prosecuting a criminal because some other person is a particeps criminis.

This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 944 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Crimes The scope of the original work has not been enlarged or chan ged in any manner. Neither has any attempt been made to vary the original classification except the addition of a very few, and perhaps inconsequential, sections to the sub-analysis. An effort has been made to preserve the original text so far as possible. At the same time the revisor has not hesitated to make such changes as the decisions warrant. Some considerable matter has been added by way of elucidation whenever such seemed advisable. It is believed that every criminal case decided since the is anauco of the original edition has been examined. Those mere ly cumulative have been rejected, but the aim has been to pre serve every case which serves in any manner to aid the student in understanding the principles. Few, if any, cases can be said to lay down new principles, but many adaptations of the old principle to new states of fact have been found. These illustrative, novel cases have been carefully and fully pre sented. H. B. L. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
