The Defendant's Rights Today
Author: David FellmanPublisher: Univ of Wisconsin Press
ISBN: 9780299072049
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 468
Book Description
With this comprehensive study, written in lay language, David Fellman provides an up-to-date analysis of the rights of the accused, certain to be welcomed by political scientists, students of public law, and all with an interest in due process of law. Since Fellman's 1958 book, The Defendant's Rights, substantial changes in the criminal justice system have occured. The past few decades before the publication of The Defendant's Rights Today have been witness to a striking expansion of the central concept of due process of law as it relates to criminal justice. The subject of defendants' rights is broad and complex. Fellman here explores its underlying concepts, bringing together a comprehensive discussion of the effects of the criminal justice system on the accused from arrest, through trial, to post-conviction remedies.

Book Description
This is a non-technical handbook on the evolution and current state of prisoners' rights in the U.S. The opening chapters use examples from Supreme Court and lower court rulings to show how legal conditions have operated to defeat gains for prisoners' rights. Chapters 2 and 3 outline the changes that allow prisoners to access the courts as a basic right. The need for correctional institutions to create behavioural and disciplinary policies for the protection of the administration and the inmates is then discussed, followed by chapters examining the problem of allowing basic human rights - living environments, labor rights, medical care, religious freedom, etc - to persons who have been judicially deprived of their freedom.
