Criminal Procedure

Catalog description

This course examines the methods by which the criminal justice system functions. For example, it examines the law surrounding the arresting of suspects, the searching of premises and persons, the interrogation of suspects and the use of police lineups. Since many aspects of criminal procedure are regulated by the U.S. Constitution, particularly, the Bill of Rights, this course emphasizes federal constitutional criminal procedure.
