Concise, clear, and effective, The Glannon Guide to Criminal Procedure
integrates multiple-choice questions into a full-fledged review of the
first-year course. Lead-up discussions of law prepare students to effectively
learn from subsequent questions. Clear explanations of both correct and
incorrect answers help to clarify nuances in the law. Carefully crafted
questions are sophisticated but fair, neither too difficult nor
unrealistically simple, and they are equally useful to all students―whether
they will be tested by multiple-choice questions or not. The Glannon
Guide to Criminal Procedure embodies a far more user-friendly and
interactive approach than other exam preparation aids, and valuable
exam-taking pointers are interspersed throughout the text. A challenging final
question in each chapter (the “Closer”) illustrates a sophisticated problem in
law, while “Closing Closer” questions in the last chapter provide further
practice and cumulative review. Perfect for preparing for one of the most
tested subjects on the bar exam, The Glannon Guide to Criminal Procedure
was written by one of the nation's leading bar review lecturers.
The Second Edition introduces important new Supreme Court cases.
Additional questions are featured, especially where new cases have been added,
as well as new "Closing Closers." A helpful new Table of Cases helps students
navigate the text.
