Basic introductory approach to criminal procedure, with a real-world slant
Criminal Procedure: From First Contact to Appeal is a comprehensive introduction to criminal procedure, from the point where individuals first come into contact with the police, all the way through to appeal. Presupposing no legal expertise, the text connects criminal procedure cases to their real-world implications through innovative pedagogy, such as decision-making exercises that position students as judge. The 6th edition adds Supreme Court decisions through the 2016-17 term and analyzes their impact on criminal and legal processes.

Criminal Procedure: From First Contact to Appeal, 6th Edition, is also available via Revel(tm), an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience.
