- Summary
- "Smith & Bailey provides a clear and comprehensive account of the English Legal System covering both the institutions, personnel and procedures, and the handling of case law and statutes. The text is complemented by sample court forms, tables of essential statistics and flow charts illustrating the court structure. Reference is made to the results of empirical research on the operation of the legal system, as well as to legal rules." "This edition has been thoroughly revised to take account of such matters as the reviews of both civil (Woolf Report) and criminal justice (The Royal Commission) and consequent changes in law and practice; the decision in Pepper v. Hart on the use of legislative history statutory interpretation; the implementation of the Maastricht Treaty; the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 with its changes affecting the right to silence; continuing changes in the regulation of the legal profession and the provision of publicly funded legal services."--Jacket
