Synopsis

Criminal Litigation: Practice and Procedure provides a thorough and practical guide to all areas of law and practice with which the aspiring criminal litigator needs to be familiar. Written with the LPC in mind, this book is suitable for both the core module of Criminal Litigation and the Advanced Criminal Practice option. Case study papers are used to demonstrate both common documents and skills required of a criminal practitioner (eg bail application, plea in mitigation) and, in addition, examples are used throughout the text to illustrate points of complexity. Completed copies of the most important court forms are included where appropriate, and invaluable checklists and flowcharts can be found at the end of each chapter to assess understanding of the topics covered. Statutory authorities and case law have been updated since the second edition to take account of recent developments in the law. In particular, the changes to the law as a result of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008 are considered.
