The criminal law handbook

The criminal justice system becomes increasingly complex each year with new laws affecting legal processes. This handbook explains every part of a criminal case including arrests, booking, preliminary hearings, charges, bail, arraignment, search and seizure, plea bargains, sentencing, and juveniles. It explains how the system works, why police, lawyers, and judges do what they do and, most important, the options for defendants, witness, and victims. The revised edition covers the latest changes in criminal law, including U.S Supreme Court cases.
