The Florida Criminal Cases Notebook

Description

Your First and Last Stop for Florida Criminal Citations

This handy title has boiled the key criminal cases since 1987 down to succinct summaries of their facts and holdings. One to three sentences cover most cases.

All case summaries are first organized by one of 150 topics, and then second by circuit. The most recent cases are positioned first. The end result is a quick-reading, easy-access summary of virtually the entire body of Florida criminal case law.

Florida Criminal Cases Notebook amasses more than 8,000 case summaries, including every key criminal case since 1987. Written by one of the leading criminal specialists in Florida, the Notebook includes the following:

• Special emphasis on sentencing, evidence and search & seizure
• Broad coverage of frequently arising trial topics
• Detailed notes with expanded factual background

Ask most Florida judges, public defenders and state prosecutors where they look for fast criminal citations and you’ll likely get the same answer: Florida Criminal Cases Notebook. Written with a busy criminal attorney in mind, the Notebook gives you instant access key cases and information. If there’s a point to be made, you’ll find it here.
