Principles of Judicial Practice

Catalog description

This course focuses on the dynamics of the court by introducing the concept of the courtroom workhouse and the interrelated relationship of the three main actors-judge, prosecutor, and defense attorney-thus illustrating the law in action, not just boring theories and facts. It is important to understand the basic layout of the judicial process, no matter what field of law or criminal justice one may be in. This class provides the basic concept needed.
