Most cases are settled by a guilty plea after some form of negotiation over the charge or sentence. But why? The standard explanation is case pressure: the enormous volume of criminal cases, to be processed with limited staff, time and resources. . . . But a large body of new empirical research now demands that we re-examine plea negotiation. Milton Heumann's book, Plea Bargaining, strongly and explicitly attacks the case-pressure argument and suggests an alternative explanation for plea bargaining based on the adaptation of attorneys and judges to the local criminal court. The book is a significant and welcome addition to the literature. Heumann's investigation of case pressure and plea negotiation demonstrates solid research and careful analysis.\"-Michigan Law Review\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51677941236000,"sku":"NEW0226331881","price":37.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61DOMpIG14L.jpg?v=1779300302","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/plea-bargaining-the-experiences-of-prosecutors-judges-and-defense-attorneys-0226331881","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
