Description

In this, the third Edition of Bail, The Author provides a critical discussion of past and current bail law, including the impact of the Constitution on statutory interpretation and practice. Where the law remains unclear ; often as a result of divergent High Court decisions ; The Author provides guidelines to the practitioner and the lower courts alike. He makes concrete suggestions, where necessary, on the application of the law in a setting where tension between the liberty of the individual and the troubling crime rate calls for a measured and practical approach. The Author has also included an invaluable Quickfinder section in which the most important bail procedures are set out in a clear, concise and easily accessible format. Notice of motion templates are also provided. Comment Unam.
