The Administration of Justice - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This new edition of a popular text provides a comprehensive account of the everyday workings of the English legal system, whilst assuming no prior legal knowledge. Courts, tribunals and the personnel of the English legal profession are examined in detail, with the help of the latest information from research studies. The Government's developments in the 1980s and 1990s to the criminal and civil justice procedures are also analyzed to give a total picture of "law in action". Coverage ranges from suspect to appeal and includes small claims, debt actions, personal injuries litigation; the changing service of barristers and solicitors; and industrial tribunals and unfair dismissal. Placing considerable reliance on recent major socio-legal studies this thoroughly revised second edition successfully links a critique of the legal system with a far-reaching analysis and description of its operation.
