Details

The rise in the use of private prosecution is of increasing importance to criminal practitioners as well as civil litigators and commercial practitioners. This book sets out the history of private prosecutions, the statutory bases and the practical issues involved in bringing and conducting a private prosecution. The step-by-step approach begins with the laying of the information and the subsequent issuing of the summons, followed by the investigation process and the gathering of evidence through to the trial process and procedure itself. In addition the work includes the important related aspects of disclosure, costs and confiscation.

Extensive use of case law and reference to related literature and statutes, as well as the inclusion of precedents, ensures a comprehensive single source for both the less experienced practitioner taking their first steps into private prosecutions and for the more experienced practitioner as a handy reference source for court.
