Synopsis Civil Liability in Criminal Justice by : H. E. Barrineau
The number of lawsuits alleging misconduct on the part of criminal justice practitioners has increased in recent years, and the rise in the number of civil liability suits has profound implications for individual practitioners and their employing agencies. Criminal justice practitioners will undoubtedly continue to be sued due to the nature of their jobs. Law enforcement personnel place individuals in custody and often use force, sometimes deadly force, in performing their duties. Jail and correctional personnel impose limits on an individual's freedom of movement, and probation and parole officers also exercise considerable control over client lives. Although most criminal justice practitioners have a vague understanding that they can be sued, few have real knowledge of their potential civil liability. Civil liability is complex and varies according to jurisdiction, and developments in Federal law have greatly expanded the scope of civil liability. Local governments can now be held liable for the conduct of police officers and jail personnel. In addition, sheriffs, police chiefs, and mid- level supervisors can be held personally liable for the conduct of their subordinates. The author discusses civil liability in terms of differences between civil and criminal law and defines types of civil or tort actions that can be taken against criminal justice practitioners. The author also considers specific cases brought against criminal justice practitioners, administrators, supervisors, and agencies. Viable defenses available to criminal justice practitioners and agencies are described, as well as provisions of U.S. Code Section 1983 under which most lawsuits are brought in Federal court.

Synopsis Civil Liability in Criminal Justice by : Darrell L. Ross
Understanding case law in high-liability areas and performing the job within a legal framework places a criminal justice agency in the best position to defend against a lawsuit. This handbook addresses the problems confronting criminal justice practitioners and their agencies due to the ever-increasing number of civil liability lawsuits. It introduces the reader to civil liability generally and the federal law specifically, while indicating the steps that can be taken to minimize the risk of litigation. Civil Liability in Criminal Justice is one of very few texts on the subject that combines applicable case law and related liability research, a valuable feature for current and future policy makers and managers. Ross also provides an overview of current case law in high-liability areas, enhancing student knowledge and practitioner job performance.

Synopsis Critical Issues in Police Civil Liability by : Victor E. Kappeler
Building on the strength of previous editions, the fourth edition presents a well-conceived, clearly stated analysis of complex issues confronting law enforcement officers and administrators. Law enforcement duties sometimes place police officers in vulnerable positions regarding their legal obligations and expose them to charges of misconduct. Civil liability is an extremely expensive proposition for police officers, law enforcement agencies, governments, andultimatelytaxpayers. Although substantial resources are often expended by the justice system to resolve liability cases, there are benefits to citizens. When the government assumes the responsibility to provide service or to protect the public, people injured by inadequate performance of those responsibilities deserve compensation; innocent parties who suffer injury should have an avenue for redress. The potential for litigation has been an impetus for better training and more responsible practices. Another excellent resource on the topic, Kappelers edited volume of Supreme Court cases, Police Civil Liability, Second Edition, allows students to understand firsthand the legal reasoning behind Court decisions dealing with these same issues.

Synopsis Critical Issues in Police Civil Liability by : Victor E. Kappeler
This text indicates law, administrative practice, and police operations have become so intertwined that police administrators can no longer be effective without understanding the principles of civil liability. The text addresses the impact of judicial decisions on issues confronting police officers, such as use of force, high- risk drug enforcement operations, abandoning citizens in dangerous places, negligent operation of emergency vehicles, failure to arrest intoxicated drivers, negligence at accident scenes, and death and suicide in detention. Findings of police science research are incorporated into legal discussions to place the law in a context meaningful to police officers and executives. The text also covers the scope and impact of police civil liability, fundamentals of State tort law and Federal liability law, and shifting concepts of police civil liability and law enforcement. A list of cases is included.

Synopsis Corporate Criminal Liability by : Mark Pieth
With industrialization and globalization, corporations acquired the capacity to influence social life for good or for ill. Yet, corporations are not traditional objects of criminal law. Justified by notions of personal moral guilt, criminal norms have been judged inapplicable to fictional persons, who ‘think’ and ‘act’ through human beings. The expansion of new corporate criminal liability (CCL) laws since the mid-1990s challenges this assumption. Our volume surveys current practice on CCL in 15 civil and common law jurisdictions, exploring the legal conditions for liability, the principles and options for sanctioning, and the procedures for investigating, charging and trying corporate offenders. It considers whether municipal CCL laws are converging around the notion of ‘corporate culture’, and, in any case, the implications of CCL for those charged with keeping corporations, and other legal entities, out of trouble.
