Prosecuting and Defending Youth Criminal Justice Cases, 3rd edition
Look Inside

Prosecuting and Defending Youth Criminal Justice Cases, 3rd Edition

Brock Jones, Sarah Leece, Mary Birdsell, Emma Rhodes
General Editor(s): Brian H. Greenspan, Vincenzo Rondinelli
Available

There are many procedural and ethical considerations that practitioners need to be aware of when working on a criminal case involving youth, especially when the young persons involved are from vulnerable populations that require special care. Prosecuting and Defending Youth Criminal Justice Cases provides practical commentary and analysis alongside updated policy, case law, and legislation in order to guide readers through a youth criminal justice case from beginning to end.

The third edition's chapters on bail, youth records and privacy, sentencing, and youth trials have been updated to include new information on the treatment of youth in the welfare system, adult sentencing applications, court remedies surrounding privacy violations, unreasonable delay in court proceedings, the admissibility of youth statements, and more. This text also explores the ways in which landmark decisions such as R v TJM, R v KJM, and R v Joseph will impact future youth criminal justice cases from both crown and defence perspectives. 

Apart from this new content, readers can rely on the text’s valuable checklists, charts, precedents, and advice to assist them through procedures and issues surrounding interviewing clients, arrest and bail matters, trials, and sentencing. This incredibly comprehensive and balanced resource will enhance the practice of lawyers, judges, and other legal professionals who interact with the youth criminal justice system.

Prosecuting and Defending Youth Criminal Justice Cases has recently been cited by the Supreme Court of Canada in the R. v. K.J.M. case. For full details, click here

This text is Volume 1 in Emond’s Criminal Law Series.
