Penal Law of the State of New York is an easy-to-use, indispensable reference tool for all New York’s law enforcement officials, attorneys, and criminal justice professionals. The manual features a comprehensive and updated presentation of New York’s Penal Law. This book includes New York Search and Seizure Law, with coverage of Arrests, Confessions, and Privacy Expectations, which provides a clear and comprehensive approach to the study of modern constitutional criminal procedure. It analyzes the classical and current United States Supreme Court and federal circuit court decisions, along with relevant state court decisions that impact the day-to-day duties of law enforcement and criminal justice professionals. Police Procedure removes the guesswork in, and tedious search for, “today’s law.” Where relevant, specific areas of state court departure have been identified. This is where various state courts employ “New Federalism” to rely on their own constitutions to provide state citizens with added protection to their rights and liberties. Police Procedure is an officer’s, attorney’s or law/criminal justice student’s or professor’s valuable reference for the Laws of Arrest, Search and Seizure, and Confession Law. In light of the cross-reference between the Penal Law and the Public Health Law, Sections 3302 and 3306 relating to the definitions and schedules of Controlled Substances are included. It also includes a listing of applicable sections affected by legislation during the latest session, along with an extensive index, table of contents, and table of motor vehicle fines for quick access to each area of the law.
