It begins with enough history to enable students to follow the historical arguments that pervade the Supreme Court's great landmarks.  Those landmarks receive extensive coverage.  Scholarly lower-court opinions, however, often are used as force-multipliers, to synthesize and apply the ever-growing Supreme Court case law.  Many of these opinions arose from civil actions, illustrating Section 1983 litigation even before the extensive chapter on constitutional remedies.  That chapter deals with the exclusionary rule, but also with 1983 and Bivens suits.  Institutional reform injunctions--the most dramatic development in the field in decades—receive extensive treatment.  Brief but detailed Notes introduce pertinent academic literature, including empirical findings on stop-and-frisk and institutional reform injunctions, systemic feedback loops, the philosophical basis of the privilege against self-incrimination, and the role of race—past and present--in the law of criminal procedure.  Prior books emphasize the Supreme Court's decisions applying the constitutional exclusionary rules.  This understandable focus comes at a price.  Too little attention is paid to the origins of our constitutional rights or to remedies for institutional violence as distinct from invasions of privacy.   The prevailing focus on the e-rule risks devoting the whole course to only part (admittedly a very important part) of the law.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50389095153937,"sku":"CIN1684675537G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1684675537.jpg?v=1750928923"},{"product_id":"about-guilt-and-innocence-book-donald-a-dripps-9780275977306","title":"About Guilt and Innocence","description":"This remarkably original and vital work argues that the problems are rooted in a disjunction between prevailing values and the prevailing doctrinal regime in constitutional law. Dripps asserts that the Fourteenth Amendment's more general standards of due process and equal protection encompass the values that ought to govern the criminal process.    Why does the American criminal justice system punish too many innocent people, failing to punish so many guilty parties and imposing a disproportionate burden on blacks? This remarkably original and vital work argues that the problems are rooted in a disjunction between prevailing values and the prevailing doctrinal regime in constitutional law. Dripps asserts that the Fourteenth Amendment's more general standards of due process and equal protection encompass the values that ought to govern the criminal process.    Criminal procedure ought to be about protecting the innocent, punishing the guilty, and doing equal justice. Modern legal doctrine, however, hinders these pursuits by concentrating on the specific procedural safeguards contained in the Bill of Rights. Dripps argues that a renewed focus on the Fourteenth Amendment would be more consistent than current law with both our values and with the legitimate sources of Constitutional law, and will promote the instrumental values the criminal process ought to serve. Legal and constitutional scholars will find his account of our criminal system's disarray compelling, and his argument as to how it may be reconstructed important and provoking.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52452733419793,"sku":"NLS9780275977306","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780275977306.jpg?v=1759365701"},{"product_id":"sentencing-discretion-and-the-constitution-book-donald-a-dripps-9780197830369","title":"Sentencing Discretion and the Constitution","description":"The U.S. Supreme Court maintains that prosecutorial discretion to charge different offenses authorized by the penal code is practically limited only by the penal code itself. Because typical offense conduct violates multiple statutes carrying different maximum – and minimum – sentences, by choosing the charge, the prosecution commonly also chooses the sentence. The Court, however, holds that when judges exercise sentencing discretion, due process requires impeccable neutrality and adversary hearings.   Sentencing Discretion and the Constitution: Due Process of Time addresses the fundamental incompatibility of the U.S. Supreme Court's approach to the sentencing power of judges as compared to prosecutors. The Court says that when prosecutors induce a guilty plea by filing lesser charges than the code allows, the defendant is getting a break rather than being strong-armed. This doctrinal fiction persists because neither dissenting justices nor academic critics have yet justified a baseline by which the infliction of years – or even decades – in prison for refusing to plead guilty or to provide information, should be treated as a coercive threat rather than an offer permitted in the \"give and take\" of plea bargaining. In theory, the charges filed should be proportional to culpability, not the most severe the code permits. This raises another hard problem: theorists have not to date advanced a persuasive account of proportionate punishment.  Unlike prior works, Sentencing Discretion and the Constitution exposes the connections between these problems and proposes a unified solution. The right against excessive punishment, like the right against erroneous conviction, is best understood as a right to procedural justice. More broadly, curtailing prosecutorial sentencing is an essential step toward curtailing mass incarceration – a problem that otherwise is more likely to get worse than better.   This book will be of interest to readers concerned with plea bargaining, sentencing, constitutional law, legal history, and criminal law theory.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52705357988113,"sku":"NGR9780197830369","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53222504661265,"sku":"NIN9780197830369","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780197830369.jpg?v=1772036766"},{"product_id":"criminal-law-and-procedure-book-donald-a-dripps-9781683284666","title":"Criminal Law and Procedure","description":"This thirteenth edition continues the book's commitment to offering the most comprehensive, rigorous, and flexible materials on the American criminal process.
