Criminal Law and Procedure

Representing what is best in traditional legal education, Criminal Law and Procedure provides an overview and introduction to the definitions and elements of the various crimes and defenses, integrating both the common law and Model Penal Code. The expert authors cover offenses against the person, habitation and occupancy, property, and more. The book reviews imputability, responsibility in general, limitations in criminal capacity, modifying circumstances, and special defenses. Updated both to include new constitutional, legislative, and judicial developments in the law and to reflect the increasingly theoretical direction of legal education, Criminal Law and Procedure contains revised information on criminal sanction, sexual assault, and criminal law statutes in general.
