This text helps you apply criminal law's enduring foundations and principles to fascinating court cases and specific crimes. With a balanced blend of case excerpts and author commentary, Samaha guides you as you sharpen your critical thinking and legal analysis skills.
You'll see the principles, defenses, and elements of crime at work as you progress through the book--and you'll learn about the general principles of criminal liability and its defenses, as well as the elements of crimes against persons, property, society, and the state. Chapter 1, “Criminal Procedure: The Big Picture”, includes a thorough section on briefing cases that equips students with an effective framework for analyzing cases as they review them.
Going well beyond the words in the principles, doctrines, and rules of criminal procedure examined in the text, Case Excerpts teach students to understand concepts by applying them to the facts of specific cases. Questions following each excerpt test students’ knowledge and understanding of the principles, doctrines, and reasoning presented in that excerpt. Case Questions prompt students to evaluate, criticize, and propose alternatives to the parties’ arguments and the decisions of the court as presented in the case excerpt.
Providing students with an excellent overview, Samaha’s classical perspective illustrates how the constitutional principles of criminal procedure have endured for centuries--even while courts and legislatures adapt them to meet society’s ever-changing needs.
