Jargon free and aimed at a general reader, it explains the where, when, and who of American courts. It also makes clear the how and why behind the law as it affects everyday people. It is, in a word, a starting place to understanding the third branch of American government at both the state and the federal levels, a guide to those wishing to know the basics of the American judicial system, and a cogent synthesis of how the various elements that make up the law and legal institutions fit together Also available in Print and PDF edition Description based on Publisher website; title from home page (viewed on June 16, 2022) HTTP:URL=https://doi.org/10.1093/actrade/9780190644918.001.0001 Host=Oxford Academic |
