Download NowWhat I like most about this book is that it’s in plain English, not “legalese” and the example scenarios of some concepts. What I wish it had more of is a few more specifics and examples on searches and seizures and sentencing. Or a section in the back to look through statutes for every state. Overall, it’s very thorough and interesting. Ive recommended it to a friend who is navigating the legal system.
