Written Publications

Justices Systems Press books are prepared as a resource for law enforcement officers, not intended as directives. Every factual situation is different and individual officers must exercise their own discretion and judgment in deciding upon the proper response.

Crime elements have been condensed and formatted to facilitate quick access to information. You should review your respective State or Federal laws to ensure that you are completely familiar with the laws in your jurisdiction. A thorough review and comprehensive understanding of your authority must occur to properly enforce the criminal laws.
