Handbook

Building on the inter-disciplinary and 'in-context' foundation established by Criminal Law and Procedure A, this subject examines a range of criminal law offences, including property offences, public order offences and drug offences, and the concept of strict liability offences. It also examines selected defences, rules relating to complicity and conspiracy, and sentencing and punishment. In addition to developing familiarity with relevant principles, rules and procedures for each of these topics, students will be required to evaluate existing rules and procedures and consider reform alternatives.
