The Principles of Criminal Evidence (Clarendon Law Series)
Description
The jury system, by which most serious offenses are tried, creates a balance in its fact-finding process between lay standards of judgment and judicial practices. This study explicates three main principles by which these practices are governed: the desire to discover the truth, protection of the innocent from conviction--including theories of proof of reasonable doubt and prejudicial evidence--and maintenance of standards of propriety. - from Amzon
