Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cases on Criminal Law The cases included in this volume have been selected mainly from American Reports dating to the year 1914, and widely chosen from many state and federal jurisdictions, without preference, a few from the English decisions recognized as leading, with the aim of being equally serviceable in Law Schools of the different states devoting from one to two hours a week to the study of Criminal Law. To show the historical development of the subject, quota tions from authoritative text writers of the past, and modern'cases reviewing the older decisions, have been used, in place of the ancient English decisions, to which the author has observed stu dents give little heed; in this way necessary economy of space has been effected. A brief chapter on the much neglected, yet highly important, subject of Constitutional Rights of the Accused has been inserted; otherwise the cases are confined to a consideration of the substantive law of Crimes, without special reference to the law of Procedure. A logical arrangement of topics has been striven for, and the cases placed, as far as possible, in a sequence which will permit the student to advance from one to another without leaving missing links of knowledge necessary to progress. Effort has been made to present cases interesting upon the facts. The footnotes have been designed to show where the law is in conflict, and also to indicate the law upon topics of which space has for bidden a fuller discussion.

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selection of Cases Illustrative of English Criminal Law The increased attention which, of recent years, has been bestowed, both in England and in the United States, upon the methods of legal education, has caused a fuller recognition of the great value which case-law possesses for even the elementary student. Only by means of concrete cases can he give vividness and reality to the abstract principles which he learns from his text-books, or even form a clear idea of the way in which questions, whether of law or of feet, are bandied in everyday practice by our courts of justice. But, valuable though this part of his legal training is, it is the part in which he most needs direction. Elementary students who read the Reports under their own guidance are prone to reverse the true order of things, by attending to the names of cases rather than to their facts, and to the facts rather than to the principles decided. Even when the principle itself is sought for, it is too often sought only by the compendious method of perusing nothing of the case beyond the head note; a plan of study which combines the disadvantages of reading case-law with those of reading text-books. And even a student whose greater assiduity has saved him from these errors is often led, by a natural inclination for reading recent cases in preference to older ones, to waste his time upon the study of decisions that are concerned only with some refined limitation of a fundamental doctrine, when he has not yet become acquainted with the cases in which that broad doctrine itself is established.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cases on Criminal Law: A Selection of Reported Cases on the Criminal Law But the question recurs, when and how have the Courts of the United States acquired a common law jurisdiction in criminal cases? The United States must possess the common law them selves before they can communicate it to their judicial agents. Now, the United States did not bring it with them from England the Constitution does not create it; and no act of Congress has assumed it. Besides, what is the common law to which we are referred? Is it the common law entire, as it exists in England or modified as it exists in some of the States; and of the various modifications which are we to select, the system of Georgia or New Hampshire, of Pennsylvania or Connecticut?

Download or read book Illustrative Cases in Criminal Law with Analysis and Citations Classic Reprint written by James Paige and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrative Cases in Criminal Law With Analysis and Citations Teaching the fundamental principles of law by means of actual cases illustrative of the meaning, limitations and scope of those principles is now admitted, I think, to be the most successful method of training young men for the bar, as it is certainly the most effectual method of educating and disciplining the mind. The "case lawyer" is denounced. If by that term is meant, as is usually true, that, having a case to conduct, he goes to the reports in search of another whose facts resemble the one he has to consider, ignoring the principle of law applicable to all cases of that class, the denunciation is merited; but the lawyer who consults the authorities extensively and thoroughly for a knowledge of principles and the just limits of their application, is the one whose merits and success are sure of recognition. The "Series," of which this volume is one, is designed to present the fundamental principles of the branches of law considered, and to furnish the student with abundant citations of authority where he can learn how judges have regarded those principles and what limitations and modifications they have recognized in their application. With us, this method, with lectures, and in some branches of the law, text-books, has produced good results; and if this book can be made useful to others whose life and energy are devoted to the. cause of legal education, that fact will be an especial gratification to its author, Mr. Paige. The merits and value of this volume are entirely due to Mr. Paige, who has devoted to it much patient labor, extensive reading, and careful thought. His analysis of the subject so carefully prepared, is a helpful feature of the book. In the hands of students it is extremely valuable.

Download or read book Celebrated Criminal Cases of America Classic Reprint written by Thomas Samuel Duke and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Celebrated Criminal Cases of America The hundred and ten cases presented in this volume should prove interesting to the general reader because of the psycho logical and, in many cases, the historical interest which attaches to them. This book also contains a brief history of the San Fran cisco Police' Department from the date of its organization; an accurate history of the far-famed Vigilance Committee; the Kearney riots; the life of Chief Justice Terry, including the famous duel in which he killed United States Senator Broder ick and his tragic death while assaulting Justice Field of the United States Supreme Court; also a synopsis of the police and municipal history of the great earthquake and fire, which contains much information which has not heretofore been published. While this volume will show that in some instances fabu lous amounts of money have been unlawfully obtained, it will also show that retribution invariably overtakes the professional criminal and brings with it untold misery and degradation. Although there are isolated cases where the perpetrator of an atrocious crime succeeds in escaping the iron hand of the law, there is one court he cannot escape, and that is the one whose findings are incontrovertible and whose sessions are held in the chambers of his own breast. The dread of discovery is constantly with him by day and by night, and who can doubt but that he finally concludes that even an ignominious death on a scaffold would be preferable to such a miserable existence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Maybrick Case: English Criminal Law I looked in vain for a continuance of the agita tion, for some sign of which I scanned the news papers for weeks. I heard nothing more of it for nearly two years. Then I read Gail Hamil ton's appeal in America for money to engage able English legal counsel to the end of learning whether it was possible to get a rehearing of the case. So I found the interest had not died out as I had feared, but that a few friends had been working silently during the interval.
