Download or read book Criminal Procedures written by Marc L. Miller and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 1058 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Criminal Procedures: Prosecution and Adjudication: Cases, Statutes, and Executive Materials, Sixth Edition, the highly respected author team presents a student-friendly, comprehensive survey of the laws and practices at work between the time a person is charged and the moment when the courts hear an appeal after the offender’s conviction and sentence. In the Sixth Edition, the authors retain the vitality and contemporary approach of the book with an updated selection of cases, statutes, and office policies. Covering in detail the “bail-to-jail” portions of the criminal process, this casebook features: Extensive use of documents from multiple institutions including U.S. Supreme Court cases, state high court cases, state and federal statutes, rules of procedure, and prosecutorial policies A real world perspective that focuses on high-volume issues of current importance to defendants, lawyers, courts, legislators, and the public instead of intricate but rarely-encountered questions Interdisciplinary examination of the impact that different procedures have on the enforcers, lawyers, courts, communities, defendants, and victims Points of comparison between U.S. practices and the systems at work in other countries Frequent use of Problems to give the instructor options for applying concepts and doctrines in realistic practice settings. New to the Sixth Edition: Two new authors join the editorial team: Jenia I. Turner of SMU Dedman School of Law and Kay L. Levine of Emory University School of Law: With her doctoral training in Socio-Legal Studies and her balanced experience as a prosecutor and a defense attorney in state court, Professor Levine sharpens the focus of the book on the real-world operation of courtroom actors in high-volume state systems. With her background in international criminal tribunals and comparative criminal procedure, Professor Turner strengthens the comparisons between court systems in the U.S. and those around the world. As experienced and celebrated classroom teachers, both Professors Turner and Levine bring closer attention to student learning needs in every chapter of the book. A revamped Chapter 2 surveys the major changes in the use of money bail and risk assessment algorithms, previewing the prospects for further system reforms. Chapter 3 covers newsworthy recent changes in the charging policies and diversion practices of prosecutors’ offices, especially those in urban areas such as Philadelphia. Chapter 7 expands its coverage of the tensions between fair trials and public trials, including new materials on public access to court files and statistics. A refocused Chapter 9 provides a more detailed and vivid portrait of sentencing hearings and the use of risk assessment instruments. Professors and students will benefit from: Materials that support class discussion, including criminal justice actors beyond the nine Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court: the vision is “street level federalism” Materials that give students a nuanced portrait of current practices in criminal justice rather than a rushed historical narrative about doctrinal trends A supporting website that offers exemplar documents, recent news with relevance for criminal procedure, and brief video lectures to introduce each major unit Intuitive organization—tracking the typical order of events in criminal court—that makes it easy to see connections among different areas of the law

Book Criminal Procedure

Download or read book Criminal Procedure written by John L. Worrall and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Preface I decided to write this book, Criminal Procedure: From First Contact to Appeal, after I had taught criminal procedure for several years. During each course, my students typically asked a litany of "what if" questions and became curious about the rules of criminal procedure after the police arrest and book a suspect. Students also expressed frustration with the fact that many of the leading books on criminal procedure presupposed a certain degree of familiarity with the criminal process, including an understanding of basic terminology. Students came to loathe these books' excessive use of legalese and obtuse descriptions of criminal procedure topics that had no real-life applications. In addition, students frequently pointed out, as did I, that there are often significant differences between what the courts require and what happens in the real world of criminal justice. For instance, consider the definition of a seizure for the purposes of the Fourth Amendment. A seizure occurs when a reasonable person would believe he or she is not free to leave. Yet many times, students find this definition wanting and ask, "If a person is not seized according to this definition, is he or she really free to leave?" This question highlights the differences between what this book calls theory and reality. It and countless other similar questions prompted me to write a criminal procedure book of my own, one that takes a comprehensive yet basic approach to criminal procedure and that connects the material to the real world with examples and exercises. By way of preview, then, this book presents an introduction to criminal procedure, from the point at which an individual first comes into contact with the police all the way through the appeals process. Approximately half of the book is devoted to traditional criminal procedure topics-notably, search-and-seizure as well as interrogation and identification procedures. The remainder of the book moves beyond these topics and discusses the pretrial process; the roles of defense attorneys, prosecutors, and grand juries; plea bargaining and guilty pleas; rights of criminal defendants at trial; and appeals and habeas corpus. Presentation The material in Criminal Procedure is covered, in large part, by focusing on the constitutional rights of criminal defendants, as interpreted by the U.S. Supreme Court. To this end, many leading Supreme Court decisions are discussed; however, lengthy excerpts from the actual decisions have been reduced to relevant remarks in order to avoid distracting from the many important concepts introduced. In order to maintain a real-world focus, the book also incorporates many actual legal documents and excerpts from official policy manuals of police departments and other criminal justice agencies around the United States. Criminal procedure should not be confused with evidence procedure or trial procedure. Evidence procedure concerns the rules for presenting evidence to prove guilt (or the lack thereof); thus, evidence courses cover such topics as types of evidence, rules for presenting witness testimony, hearsay, and the like. This book touches on evidence only tangentially- by discussing witness questioning and the police actions used to secure evidence through search and seizure. But the focus on evidence does not move beyond these two issues. Likewise, this book is not about trial procedure. That is, it does not address the nuances of criminal trials, including the order of events at trial, what objections can be raised, instructions to the jury, and so on. Trial procedure is a topic typically covered in law school. Instead, this book presents a comprehensive introduction to criminal procedure, thoroughly presenting basic legal concepts and issues in a conversational written style and tone. Given this content coverage and the frequent use of examples from actual legal documents and policy guides, readers who are pursuing careers in criminal justice"--

Morse integrates and analyzes the statute with court decisions and constitutional considerations, presenting the reader with a ready knowledge of the criminal procedure process. The book contains over eighty edited, illustrative cases illustrating various aspects of criminal procedure law such as stop and frisk, search warrants, no-knock entry, grand jury proceedings, plea bargaining, bail, admission at trial of previous statements of witnesses, bodily intrusions, DNA testing, suppression of evidence, jury trial, sentencing, and sex offender registration. This book may be used in any jurisdiction in order to enable one to acquire a working knowledge and understanding of basic criminal procedure law.
