LAW-6430 CRIMINAL JUSTICE ADMIN SEM

It will provide opportunity for students to do advanced work in the criminal area. We will consider the roles and relationships of the police, prosecutor, defense counsel, court and correctional agencies in the processing of criminal cases. Among the issues considered will be how death penalty cases are litigated and administered in the Florida Courts. Consideration will be given to other substantive criminal law issues including criminal administration of jails and prisons, drug enforcement, race and crime and alternative punishments. The seminar will be limited to twenty students. Each student will be required to present a topic in class. This work will in most cases be preparatory work on seminar papers or papers in satisfaction of the Upper Level Writing Requirement. There will be no final examination in the course but each student will be expected to have his or her paper complete by the end of the exam period.
