Preferred term

doctrinal issues in penal court procedures  

Definition

  • There always has been a multiplicity of penal court procedures. The differences in how criminal wrongdoings are unraveled and settled often depend on the mode of their commission, the relationship between victim and perpetrator, and the seriousness of the offense.
