Synopsis

This book comprehensively examines the process of an examination before a warrant is issued within a criminal case. It delves into its historical origins through the evolution of English law, the role of the grand jury, and the development of constitutional rights. The author presents a detailed analysis of the law and practice of arrest and examination and identifies the persons who may lodge a complaint, the form of the complaint, and to whom to apply. Importantly, this book examines the powers and duties of the magistrate or justice of the peace when determining whether probable cause exists for issuing a warrant. The discussion includes the examination of the witnesses, the detention of the accused pending the hearing, and the procedure for holding to answer.
