Synopsis

Criminal Procedure: Cases, Readings, and Comparative Perspectives focuses on the essentials of criminal procedure law as it arises under the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments to the United States Constitution. The casebook presents both historical and contemporary U.S. Supreme Court cases that have established and expanded upon foundational principles of criminal procedure jurisprudence.

The opening chapter explores two important sources of criminal procedure law: the U.S. Constitution and the United States Supreme Court. Chapters 2 through 6 examine several Fourth Amendment issues, including the definition of legally protected areas and interests, warrant requirements, and the exclusionary rule. Chapter 7 explores the Fifth Amendment and Miranda, and Chapter 8 addresses the Sixth Amendment right to counsel. Each chapter contains relevant readings by scholars in the field to further explore the intricacies and impact of court decisions.

The third edition has been reorganized for easier navigation of topics and cases. Chapter 2 features significant changes to the material, including a special section on technology and the Fourth Amendment. This new edition also includes additional notes and questions designed to enhance understanding of the materials and encourage classroom dialogue.

Criminal Procedure: Cases, Readings, and Comparative Perspectives is an exemplary resource for courses in criminal law and procedure.
