Fundamental Cases in Procedural Law

Adam J. McKee

---

This text contains the heavily abridged and edited versions of important court cases centered on the law of criminal procedure.  This book is designed as a companion to my textbook Fundamentals of Procedural Law, but would make a good supplement to any course with an emphasis on constitutional rights and encounters with the criminal justice system.  Note that this is a continuation of the cases presented in Fundamental Cases on the Fourth Amendment.
