This text is designed to serve either as a supplement to a criminal justice textbook or as a standalone text. Each of five parts represents a different area within the criminal court system. The list of key terms highlights what is addressed in each Part. Applicable Illinois statutes have been included for reference. The transcript format allows for ease in location of specific points for classroom discussion. The short-answer exercises, whether completed in class or turned in as assignments, provide an easy check of student assessment. Classroom students may even wish to role-play the trials contained in Part III.
