Criminal Litigation & Legal Issues in Criminal Procedure is designed to incorporate the substantive law of criminal procedure into a trial advocacy course. The traditional trial advocacy course is concerned almost exclusively with "skills training" (e.g., learning techniques for cross-examining a witness), but does not incorporate much, if any, substantive law. Conversely, a traditional substantive course on criminal law or criminal procedure focuses exclusively on legal principles and doctrine, but does not involve training students in courtroom advocacy skills concerning substantive law. In Criminal Litigation & Legal Issues in Criminal Procedure, author Brent Newton merges elements from these two types of courses into one and seeks to bridge the gap between them.
Whether you are a prosecutor or a defense attorney, a thorough understanding of the many procedural issues in a case can mean the difference between a conviction and an acquittal or an affirmance or reversal on appeal. This guide by Brent Newton comprehensively examines the major topics in constitutional criminal procedure with a pragmatic view that gets to the heart of each matter quickly and cogently. It includes a summary to every significant decision of the United States Supreme Court that impacts constitutional criminal procedure. This text also highlights many of constitutional procedural issues that the United States Supreme Court has not yet addressed and reviews the extensive treatment these issues have received in the lower federal and state courts. Written for law students, criminal defense attorneys, and prosecuting attorneys, the Fourth Edition of Practical Criminal Procedure helps legal professionals understand complex criminal legal issues in context and how legal issues commonly arise in real-world litigation. New to the 4th Edition: The fourth edition includes practical analysis of many new Supreme Court decisions that significantly have changed many aspects of constitutional criminal procedure, including: Fourth Amendment cases, including Kansas v. Glover (2019); Carpenter v. United States (2018); Collins v. Virginia (2018); and Byrd v. United States (2018) Double Jeopardy cases, including Gamble v. United States (2019) Cases addressing the Sixth Amendment right to counsel, including Ramos v. Louisiana (2020) Sixth Amendment right to counsel cases, including McCoy v. Louisiana (2018) and Garza v. Idaho (2019) Sentencing cases, including McKinney v. Arizona (2020) Federal habeas corpus cases, including Wilson v. Sellers (2018)

The framework and concepts presented are applicable at the department, program, campus, or system level to guide minor, incremental, or transformative change.Achieving a shared organizational vision can be a daunting challenge, given the multiple missions of higher education, varied and often conflicting stakeholder viewpoints, siloed organizational structures, traditions of shared governance, and a highly educated workforce bringing together colleagues with diverse disciplinary perspectives.

The industry's longest-running publication for baseball analysts and fantasy leaguers, Ron Shandler's 2019 Baseball Forecaster, published annually since 1986, is the first book to approach prognostication by breaking performance down into its component parts. Rather than predicting batting average, for instance, this resource looks at the elements of skill that make up any given batter's ability to distinguish between balls and strikes, his propensity to make contact with the ball, and what happens when he makes contact—reverse engineering those skills back into batting average. The result is an unparalleled forecast of baseball abilities and trends for the upcoming season and beyond.

What's better than a good story? A story with a message! Being an educator is hard work, and it's easy to doubt whether we're making a difference in the lives of our students. In Stories of EduInfluence, veteran educator Brent Coley shares stories from more than two decades in the classroom and front office, stories illustrating the life-changing power we possess. In each chapter, Brent transparently recalls experiences as a classroom teacher and site administrator, from humble successes to epic failures. These stories focus on the unique powers every educator possesses, powers that comprise what Brent calls EduInfluence. Each power is centered on a particular belief that, if embraced, can transform one's practice. Chapters end with reflection questions to help readers take what they've read and apply it in their own classrooms, offices or at home with their own kids. If you have ever become discouraged and asked yourself, "Am I making a difference?" this book is for you. If you're looking for encouragement and inspiration conveyed through stories that will make you smile, laugh, and even cry, this book is for you. Because you do make a difference, every single day, even when you don't realize it! "The origins of education can be traced back to master storytellers. Every educator has a story, and the wisdom that lives in these stories can make us better for the children we serve. Author Brent Coley offers us the opportunity to engage with real stories that have real substance for real educators. He takes the reader on a powerful journey, all the while offering questions and prompts for our learning and reflection. Coley's Stories of EduInfluence is a must-read for teachers and school leaders alike who value the shared wisdom and experience storytelling offers us." - Weston Kieschnick, Senior Fellow for International Center for Leadership in Education and Bestselling Author of Bold School "Brent Coley's Stories of EduInfluence is an opportunity to be inspired. Stories are indeed the focus, but these are stories that direct us to see what we do in new ways, to re-evaluate what's important in our work, and to remember that what we say and do can make a life-changing difference for children. While Coley's classroom experience (and most of his stories) center on elementary students, there is something in every chapter to speak to teachers of all ages. This is a great gathering of discussion prompts, and a strong addition to any school's PD library." - Rushton Hurley, Executive Director of Next Vista for Learning and Author of Making Your Teaching Something Special and Making Your School Something Special "As educators, we are tasked with so many different roles, that we often forget one of the most important-influencer. In Stories of EduInfluence, Brent reminds us of the powerful impact we have on those around us. Chock-full of stories from the heart and practical examples, this is a must-read for anyone in the field of education." - Cori Orlando, Teacher, Blogger, and Presenter "I wish this book on every educator. It is finally time for the pendulum to swing back in this direction-Brent reminds us all that schools run on relationships, and that we each have more EduInfluence than we may imagine." - John Eick, Executive Director of Westlake Charter School
