Download or read book The Law of Criminal and Civil Evidence written by Martin Hannibal and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2002 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The text develops the readers' understanding of the law of evidence in both a practical and an academic way by examining and analysing the law in the context of the adversarial and managed systems of criminal and civil justice. This book takes a different approach by formally recognising the operation of the different evidential principles between criminal and civil cases; including a detailed section on the law of civil evidence; recognising that the study of evidence should reflect the practical context in which the rules operate; anticipating important proposed legislative changes in the law of evidence and by recognising the impact of the implementation of the Human Rights Act 1998 on the law of evidence.
