SynopsisWritten by experienced practitioners in this area, Criminal Litigation and Sentencing offers an excellent introduction to the law, rules and practices of criminal procedure and sentencing which govern the role of the criminal advocate across the full range of criminal proceedings, including trial in the magistrates', youth, Crown and appellant courts. The legal framework underpinning all aspects of a criminal case is clearly examined, from the moment an individual isarrested and charged, through to trial, and appeals against conviction. Full consideration is also given to the law and practice of sentencing ensuring that the junior practitioner has a full working knowledge of all aspects of the criminal justice system which may be encountered in the early years of practice. This 2009-2010 edition has been fully revised in light of recent developments to the criminal justice system introduced by the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008, the Criminal Evidence (Witness Anonymity) Act 2008 and the Criminal Procedure (Amendment No 2) Rules 2008. Important case law developments and reform options, including the Coroners and Justice Bill 2009 and the Policing and Crime Bill, are also considered ensuring that the reader is equipped with the most up-to-dateinformation in this dynamic area of the law. Criminal Litigation and Sentencing is essential reading for all trainee barristers, and is also a useful source of reference for junior practitioners wishing to refresh their knowledge of the criminal justice system and its procedures., Written by experienced practitioners in this area, Criminal Litigation and Sentencing offers an excellent introduction to the law, rules and practices of criminal procedure and sentencing which govern the role of the criminal advocate across the full range of criminal proceedings, including trial in the magistrates', youth, Crown and appellant courts.
