Synopsis :

An Introduction to Canadian Criminal Procedure and Evidence, Sixth Edition, offers a comprehensive introduction to criminal procedure and provides a critical overview of the gathering and admissibility of evidence. The text is aligned with how the criminal justice process from an investigative stage and initial encounter between police and suspect, to the early involvement of defence lawyers and Crown prosecutors, to the inside of the courtroom and jury selection, to the conduct of trials and the application of rules of evidence to such proceedings. It first addresses the out-of-court and pre-trial realities of the criminal justice process such as search and seizure, electronic surveillance, admissions and confessions, police powers of arrest and release, and an accused person’s due process rights, including the right to full disclosure. The text then discusses the rules that govern in-court proceedings, including the rules that determine the compellability of witnesses, what can and cannot be said by witnesses, what inferences trial judges or juries may or may not draw from evidence, and how juries are created.
