The Craft of Justice
Author: Roy B. Flemming
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press Anniversary Collection
ISBN:
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
In The Craft of Justice, more than three hundred judges, prosecutors, and defense attorneys candidly and often with disarming frankness discuss the fascinating dynamics of the American criminal court system. In one of the largest, most intensive comparative investigations ever undertaken of America's criminal courts, the authors studied nine felony courts in both similar and dissimilar communities in three states. The results of this research provided an unparalleled opportunity to examine the contextual and environmental conditions that shape the efforts of individuals who use their personal influence to determine how felony cases are processed. The Craft of Justice explains how criminal court policies reflect tensions or harmony among judges on the bench, and it systematically identifies and illustrates patterns of dominance and conflict within courthouse communities. Craft as work brings the courtroom into focus as a place where attorneys and judges adapt to their institutional settings and seek to promote their careers. In The Craft of Justice, Roy B. Flemming, Peter F. Nardulli, and James Eisenstein have provided a thought-provoking and controversial analysis of the American criminal court system. The candor with which prosecutors, judges, and defense attorneys discussed their courtroom craft provides for an interesting, illuminating, and accessible book that will be of interest to both professional and lay readers.

Roadhouse Justice
Author: Trent Brown
Publisher: LSU Press
ISBN: 0807178349
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
In 1951, a young Black woman, working as an overnight caretaker at a county-line beer joint in southwestern Mississippi, shot and killed a white intruder who was likely intending to assault her. Hattie Lee Barnes’s killing of Lamar Craft threw the courts into a whirlwind of conflicting stories and murder attempts, illuminating the capriciousness of Mississippi justice, in which race, personal connections, and community expectations mattered a great deal. In Roadhouse Justice, Trent Brown examines the long-forgotten circumstances surrounding this case, revealing not only the details of Craft’s death and the lengthy court proceedings that followed, but also the precarious nature of Black lives under the 1950s southern justice system. Told here in full for the first time, the story of Barnes’s tribulations and ultimate victory demonstrates her intense determination and refusal to buckle under the enormous pressures she faced.
