Criminal solicitors are increasingly called upon to deal with cases that are civil in nature where the rules of evidence and procedure are radically different. In the past few years Anti-social Behaviour Orders, Sex Offender Orders and Football Banning Orders have become commonplace in the Crown and magistrates' courts and the new Anti-Social Behaviour and Sexual Offences Acts will increase their use. This book includes the new provisions in the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act and will be the first book to deal with the full range of civil orders that are available. Practical and proscriptive, this book has a number of useful procedural checklists, summaries and all the pertinent legislation, guidance and proformas will be appended on a CD-ROM for easy access in one place. A thorough and concise analysis of the new and existing provisions, it gives clear explanations as to how the new law will affect current practice.
