In addition to focusing on the Criminal Procedure Act 2009 (Vic), Criminal Processes and Investigative Procedures - Victoria and Commonwealth also focuses on the other key aspects of the criminal processes and investigative procedures that are now extant in the Victorian and Commonwealth jurisdictions; in particular, the hierarchy of courts in Victoria, commencement of criminal proceedings, bail, search and seizure, forensic procedures, police questioning, the parameters of double jeopardy, the jury system and other important areas as well.
This is achieved through a combination of case and statutory extracts which, when appropriate, are accompanied by commentaries that are precisely crafted to assist the readers' understanding.
