Prosecuting 2ed is an essential manual for all those involved in the preparation and conduct of a criminal trial whether by jury or judge alone. Authored by Raymond Gibson QC, a leading criminal barrister and Senior Crown Prosecutor for the State of Victoria, this new edition of Prosecuting draws on his detailed knowledge and skills gained in the prosecution of criminal trials (including cases of murder, sexual offences, fraud, arson, kidnapping and serious drug trafficking) to deliver this compelling publication.
The book provides invaluable guidance on how counsel should go about their task, from initial reading of the brief to the final address and sentencing hearing, and is designed to assist criminal law practitioners, prosecuting bodies, police, legal aid and courts involved in the criminal trial process in all Australian States and Territories.
The book will be equally of interest for those who may be experienced in the conducting of a contested criminal case, be it a trial or a summary hearing, and want to read another’s perspective, or, those who have never prosecuted and want to find out how it is done.
The second edition is completely revised and updated, in particular:
