Modern Criminal Procedure: Cases, Comments and Questions (American Casebook Series)

The 13th edition of one of the best-selling casebooks of all time: Kamisar, LaFave, Israel, King, Kerr & Primus's Modern Criminal Procedure (and "spinoffs" Basic and Advanced). These materials afford a teacher maximum freedom to shape his or her own course in light of a particular teacher's own sense of priorities and interests. At many places the editors have sought to enrich the case material with editors' Notes & Questions or extracts from illuminating and insightful books, reports and law review articles. The book contains such topics as: Arrest, search and seizure Right to counsel Police interrogation and confessions Undercover investigations Computer network surveillance Guilty pleas Trial by jury Post-conviction review Individual rights and the war on terrorism.
