Practice-based introduction to criminal law and procedure
Using actual examples from practice, Criminal Law and Procedure for the Paralegal, Fourth Edition, teaches students about the real-world experience of the paralegal, with coverage of local, state, and federal criminal cases. Working with the various types of cases presented in this book familiarizes students with the role of the paralegal in the process of investigation, prosecution, and defense in criminal cases. Carter's successful building-block approach explains the basic elements of all criminal offenses and how those elements are used to define crimes.
