Principles of Evidence
This comparatively short, readable treatise is written especially for students. First published in 1978, this text examines all topics typically covered in a three-or four-hour course in evidence. Emphasis is on the Federal Rules of Evidence, now adopted in most states. Should the reader desire additional material, ample footnotes provide easy access to leading cases, articles, and standard reference works. The Fifth Edition contains an in-depth treatment of the important amendments to the Federal Rules of Evidence, including the most recent addition of Rule 502.
Trying Cases to Win
In 2012, the American Bar Association published Trying Cases to Win: In One Volume, one of the most highly praised trial advocacy books ever published. Now a student edition is available. The authors have studied transcripts of some of the most famous English and American trial lawyers, and have received input from great American trial lawyers currently trying cases all over the country. They now offer in one volume the lessons, maxims, and suggestions that should enable law students to leave law school with confidence that for the first time they have been exposed to the most sophisticated, understandable, and intellectually appealing trial advocacy teachings.
Terrorism and the Law
"The purpose of this book is to provide sample sources and court cases on the legal responses to terrorism both nationally and internationally." - p. vii.
Arbitrary Justice
What happens when public prosecutors, the most powerful officials in the criminal justice system, seek convictions instead of justice? Why are cases involving well-to-do victims often prosecuted more vigorously than those involving poor victims? Why do wealthy defendants frequently enjoy more lenient plea bargains than the disadvantaged? In this eye-opening work, Angela J. Davis shines a much-needed light on the power of American prosecutors, revealing how the day-to-day practice of even the most well-intentioned prosecutors can result in unequal treatment of defendants and victims. Ranging from mandatory minimum sentencing laws that enhance prosecutorial control over the outcome of cases, to the increasing politicization of the office, Davis uses powerful stories of individuals caught in the system to demonstrate how the perfectly legal exercise of prosecutorial discretion can result in gross inequities in criminal justice. For the paperback edition, Davis provides a new Afterword which covers such recent incidents of prosecutorial abuse as the Jena Six case, the Duke lacrosse case, the Department of Justice firings, and more.
