Additional Information |
The 2023 Edition of the Federal Criminal Procedure Litigation Manual remains the most thorough, comprehensive, and ambitious analysis of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. As with prior editions, the Manual breaks each of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure down into its discrete parts and analyzes each part in detail. At various times the Manual offers Practice Tips to assist the user in making practical use of the Rules. The analysis of each Rule identifies related rules, relevant constitutional provisions, pertinent federal statutes, pertinent federal regulations, helpful secondary authorities and leading cases. It packs everything one needs to know about the Rules in a useable, concise one-volume work.
The 2023 Edition includes new coverage on the most recent amendment to the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure:
Fed. R. Crim. P. 16 clarifies the scope and timing of the parties’ obligations to disclose expert testimony by adding specificity regarding what information must be disclosed and setting deadlines for those disclosures. The government is obligated to disclose to the defendant information for any testimony the government intends to use during its case-in-chief and in rebuttal; the defendant is likewise obligated to disclose to the government information for any testimony the defendant intends to use during the defendant’s case-in-chief.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CARES Act, Pub. L. No. 116-136 §15002(b) created a statutory exception to Rule 53 allowing for the use of video teleconferencing or telephone conferencing for various stages of a criminal trial. The 2023 Edition also tracks the upcoming new Rule 62, which ultimately will supplant the CARES Act for all future rules emergencies and has recently been submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court, October 19, 2022, and is on schedule for adoption in 2023.
Both the Advisory Committee on the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and the Advisory Committees on other Federal Rules are regularly considering amendments that recognize the importance of modern forms of communication and information storage and the mobility of both people and data. The Federal Criminal Procedure Litigation Manual follows proposed amendments closely and explains those that are approved and that are relevant to federal criminal cases. It keeps its users current and informed.
As the federal courts adapt to the new normal of living in a Covid-19 environment and restart trying criminal cases, this Manual offers its users a chance to refresh themselves on the rules and how to use them in their practice.
