Details

Archbold Hong Kong 2021 allows you to stay confident in the face of an ever-changing legal environment. The Honourable Mr Justice Bokhary GBM, NPJ continues as the Editor-in-Chief with Professor Simon Young leading a team of expert criminal practitioners as General Editor.

Cited extensively in court, Archbold Hong Kong is the authoritative companion which adds weight and credibility to your arguments. The focus is on what the law is, rather than what it ought to be, covering both substantive law as well as the practice and procedure of the court.

The National Security Law (NSL) is the most important piece of criminal law legislation applied in Hong Kong in recent times, and practitioners are slowly coming to terms with it. The NSL is currently covered in Chapters 2 (The Criminal Jurisdiction of the Courts), 5 (Sentences and Orders on Conviction), 15 (Police Powers, Confessions and Discretion to Exclude Evidence), 19 (Human Rights), 26 (National Security), 41 (Proceeds of Crime) and 42 (Surrender of Fugitive Offenders).

Archbold Hong Kong 2021 is the essential companion and reference publication for every criminal practitioner.
