Synopsis

This book will assist your learning and exam preparation in criminal procedure courses and for the bar exam. The subject matter of the book extends to all major subjects covered in criminal procedure courses. Some schools divide criminal procedure courses into Criminal Procedure I (police practices) and II (prosecution). This book includes the material in both courses. The book consists of multiple choice questions and answers, and short essay questions and answers for both courses. The Criminal Procedure I materials cover arrest, search and seizure, interrogation, identification, suppression issues, and entrapment. Those topics are found in Questions 1 through 100, and the practice final exam for Criminal Procedure I can be found in Questions 228 through 252. The Criminal Procedure II materials cover discretion to prosecute, bail, complaint, initial appearance, preliminary hearing, grand jury, plea bargaining, joinder and severance, motion practice, discovery, time limitations, jurisdiction and venue, trial, double jeopardy, and postconviction remedies. Those topics are found in Questions 101 through 227, and the practice final exam for Criminal Procedure II can be found in Questions 253 through 277.For each multiple-choice question, Professors Katz and Cohen provide a detailed answer that indicates which of four options is the best answer and explains thoroughly why that option is better than the other three options. Each short-answer question is designed to be answered in fifteen minutes or less. For these questions, Professors Katz and Cohen provide a thoughtful, comprehensive, yet brief model answer.
