This annual title is the essential sentencing text, updated with all the latest changes from the past 12 months, including new legislation, the new Criminal Practice Directions, new Sentencing Guidelines, and all-important cases from the Court of Appeal (Criminal Division).
The book is split into two parts. Part A contains everything you need to know about sentencing procedure, courts’ sentencing powers and sentencing principles. The title has been structured around the Sentencing Code with extensive commentary and the availability of sentences, on the Sentencing Code (as amended) and guidance regarding the extent to which case law pre-dating the Sentencing Code continues to apply. Part B provides guidance on determining the appropriate sentence for almost all criminal offences, including the sentencing guidelines and important cases from the Court of Appeal (Criminal Division) on the application of the guidelines. Part B also includes commentary on the approach to determining the appropriate sentence designed to be useful to practitioners and the judiciary.
The title includes extensive expert commentary from the authors and other expert practitioners and academics, identifying likely arguments and areas of ambiguity.
