Providing general information on the civil liability process as it affects police and correctional institutions, this text uses Supreme Court and lower court decisions to illustrate how different cases have been applied in criminal justice agencies. Coverage of recent research on civil liability underscores liability trends, policy and procedure issues, and individual officer and administrative responsibilities. Chapter topics include liability for failure to train, liability and wrongful custodial death, and personnel issues and liability. This fifth edition is updated with 120 new cases, including nine Supreme Court decisions, and material on 53 new research studies to show how cases are applied at the criminal justice agency level. The book can be used as a stand-alone text for a legal course or as a supplement to an administrative course. Ross is director of the School of Law Enforcement and Justice Administration at Western Illinois University. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
