Description
Criminal Procedure The Post-Investigative Process 6th Edition ISBN 9781531030322
Criminal Procedure: The Post-Investigative Process (Sixth Edition) is designed to explore the "bail to jail" aspects of the criminal justice system. Unlike texts that focus on the constitutional rules governing arrest, search and seizure, or interrogation, this book concentrates on the critical—yet often overlooked—stages that begin with the decision to file charges and conclude with post-conviction proceedings.
Organized roughly in chronological order, the book traces the procedural journey of a criminal defendant through the justice system. It features key federal and state cases, relevant procedural rules, and selected empirical studies that provide context and insight. Practical considerations are emphasized throughout, including the complex ethical dilemmas frequently faced by both prosecutors and defense attorneys.
Recognizing that most criminal cases are resolved through guilty pleas, the book consistently highlights how various procedural stages influence plea bargaining and plea decisions.
With a dual focus on doctrinal foundations and real-world practice, the authors incorporate numerous practice problems designed to help students analyze, apply, and internalize the material. This combination makes the book a valuable resource for understanding the legal framework and strategic choices that define post-investigative criminal procedure.

-
Rental returns: free at semester's end, prorated if early
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning it by your semester return date, or after it is already overdue, is free with no deduction. Returning it early, before that date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book by your semester date is always free; an early return deducts the restocking fee and label cost from your refund instead.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it EARLY, before your semester return date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund, the same as cancelling a shipped rental for a refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
