Defendants in the Criminal Process (Routledge Revivals)

First published in 1976, this book examines the practical workings of the English criminal court system, focusing on the defendants experiences of the system and the decisions he takes as he passes through it. It is based upon the close observation of criminal cases and on interviews with defendants and raises several issues to be addressed by those involved in the administration of justice, whether as court administrators, judges, magistrates or lawyers.
