Description
CRIMINAL PROCEDURE helps you understand the central theme in constitutional democracies--balancing the need for government power to protect public safety with the guarantee of individual liberty and privacy. By focusing on comprehension and not memorization, the textbook helps you understand our criminal procedures and why we need them. This text examines the constitutional requirements of criminal procedure and how these requirements are applied by the courts to law enforcement, prosecution, defense, pre-trial proceedings, adjudication, sentencing, appeal, and habeas corpus. And to ensure that you succeed in your course, you'll find helpful in-text learning aids as well as a companion CD-ROM packaged with every new copy of the book.
