Very Very In-depth
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This isn't just a casebook, it's a damn near encyclopedia on criminal procedure. Odds are if you use this text, your professor was smart enough to cover only specific areas. As for the text itself, the materials are very in-depth, with detailed Note section spaced in between the few principal cases that the book has to offer. Some notes are extremely relevant to the rule being studied, while others are simple musings, criticisms, and/or the author's opinions on the subject material that will not aid in your understanding of the concepts. As the only people who would buy this are most likely law students, all in all, this casebook is the standard and likely will help you understand all the facets of criminal procedure.
Definitely thorough.

You have to give the editors some credit--it only took around 1600+ pages to cover everything you'd ever want to know about criminal procedure. Seriously, though, I feel this casebook does a better job than most. As expected, it puts in the edited text of the seminal cases, but the casebook does the best between the cases. The notes that follow the cases are incredibly comprehensive. Instead of just adding a couple of squib cases, the notes seem to take the reader down the complete path(s) of the law since the case. It's a great resource, but it the level of detail makes straight reading kind of hairy... but hey. Last time I checked, people don't read casebooks for pleasure.
