This is an accessible practical guide to assist criminal court practitioners in preparing and conducting court business, covering issues most commonly raised during criminal court hearings. The book is split into nine elemental areas which a competent and effective court lawyer needs to know well. These areas include coverage of procedural issues; evidential issues; major legal concepts; the most frequently prosecuted charges, as well as road traffic matters and sentencing. Regardless of how well prepared a lawyer may be, the likelihood is that something unexpected will occur during court, be it in a trial, proof or debate. With this text, a practitioner need access only one book to quickly answer most issues likely to be raised daily, rather than carry around numerous different books or access different websites. The book is a `one stop' resource for matters which practitioners are likely to regularly encounter. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Scottish Law Service and Scots Law Student Service.Binding: Paperback / softback
