Book excerpt: This text indicates law, administrative practice, and police operations have become so intertwined that police administrators can no longer be effective without understanding the principles of civil liability. The text addresses the impact of judicial decisions on issues confronting police officers, such as use of force, high- risk drug enforcement operations, abandoning citizens in dangerous places, negligent operation of emergency vehicles, failure to arrest intoxicated drivers, negligence at accident scenes, and death and suicide in detention. Findings of police science research are incorporated into legal discussions to place the law in a context meaningful to police officers and executives. The text also covers the scope and impact of police civil liability, fundamentals of State tort law and Federal liability law, and shifting concepts of police civil liability and law enforcement. A list of cases is included.

Download or read book Critical Issues in Police Civil Liability written by Victor E. Kappeler and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2006-02-24 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the strength of previous editions, the fourth edition presents a well-conceived, clearly stated analysis of complex issues confronting law enforcement officers and administrators. Law enforcement duties sometimes place police officers in vulnerable positions regarding their legal obligations and expose them to charges of misconduct. Civil liability is an extremely expensive proposition for police officers, law enforcement agencies, governments, andultimatelytaxpayers. Although substantial resources are often expended by the justice system to resolve liability cases, there are benefits to citizens. When the government assumes the responsibility to provide service or to protect the public, people injured by inadequate performance of those responsibilities deserve compensation; innocent parties who suffer injury should have an avenue for redress. The potential for litigation has been an impetus for better training and more responsible practices. Another excellent resource on the topic, Kappelers edited volume of Supreme Court cases, Police Civil Liability, Second Edition, allows students to understand firsthand the legal reasoning behind Court decisions dealing with these same issues.

This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, a comprehensive text has brought together the major topics concerning police liability. It is written from the perspective of a ten-year police veteran - written by a cop for cops. It will help the average cop understand and cope with a frightening area of today's society, as well as help current and future police administrators under stand how to deal with civil liability. Today's police officer is twenty times more likely to be sued than to be shot. Yet, the average police officer has received a hundred times more training on fire arms use than in learning how to protect oneself from the civil lawsuit. With the number of lawsuits against individual officers and departments on the rise, we can no longer ignore the need to educate ourselves against the threat of civil liability. This book acts as a road map of basic training to find the way through the labyrinth of our civil justice system. No other book attacks the problem of understanding the growing theories of police civil liability. Whether used in a college classroom, academy, or personal library, this is must reading for every police officer working today. Those who arm themselves in this knowledge area can survive the horrendous attacks by money-hungry litigants and will be better prepared to lead the law enforcement community into the next century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Crisis of Police Liability Lawsuits: Prevention and Management explains and illustrates how and why attorneys are winning an increasing number of unwarranted lawsuits against the police. This concise and practical guide discusses how these lawsuits have negatively impacted police morale and effectiveness, and how police departments both small and large can work to reverse this dangerous trend. Using examples culled from actual deposition and trial testimony, the book demonstrates the tactics used by lawyers to win exorbitant verdicts even when the police had acted in good faith to carry out their responsibilities. Several egregious cases that resulted in settlements or unjust verdicts are examined. Chapters cover the differences between criminal law, state tort law, and federal civil rights litigation; the history and recent expansion of police liability; common mistakes officers make; and how they can stay focused in the face of questioning by aggressive attorneys. Information and training is provided regarding arrest procedures, documentation of probable cause, and appropriate strategies for police defendants and witnesses. Based on his long experience as a police officer, an attorney, and a legal consultant for both plaintiffs and defendants in police-liability cases, Signorelli provides step-by-step, easy-to-follow strategies that will help police officers successfully defend themselves and their agencies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of lawsuits alleging misconduct on the part of criminal justice practitioners has increased in recent years, and the rise in the number of civil liability suits has profound implications for individual practitioners and their employing agencies. Criminal justice practitioners will undoubtedly continue to be sued due to the nature of their jobs. Law enforcement personnel place individuals in custody and often use force, sometimes deadly force, in performing their duties. Jail and correctional personnel impose limits on an individual's freedom of movement, and probation and parole officers also exercise considerable control over client lives. Although most criminal justice practitioners have a vague understanding that they can be sued, few have real knowledge of their potential civil liability. Civil liability is complex and varies according to jurisdiction, and developments in Federal law have greatly expanded the scope of civil liability. Local governments can now be held liable for the conduct of police officers and jail personnel. In addition, sheriffs, police chiefs, and mid- level supervisors can be held personally liable for the conduct of their subordinates. The author discusses civil liability in terms of differences between civil and criminal law and defines types of civil or tort actions that can be taken against criminal justice practitioners. The author also considers specific cases brought against criminal justice practitioners, administrators, supervisors, and agencies. Viable defenses available to criminal justice practitioners and agencies are described, as well as provisions of U.S. Code Section 1983 under which most lawsuits are brought in Federal court.

This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proactive policing, as a strategic approach used by police agencies to prevent crime, is a relatively new phenomenon in the United States. It developed from a crisis in confidence in policing that began to emerge in the 1960s because of social unrest, rising crime rates, and growing skepticism regarding the effectiveness of standard approaches to policing. In response, beginning in the 1980s and 1990s, innovative police practices and policies that took a more proactive approach began to develop. This report uses the term "proactive policing" to refer to all policing strategies that have as one of their goals the prevention or reduction of crime and disorder and that are not reactive in terms of focusing primarily on uncovering ongoing crime or on investigating or responding to crimes once they have occurred. Proactive policing is distinguished from the everyday decisions of police officers to be proactive in specific situations and instead refers to a strategic decision by police agencies to use proactive police responses in a programmatic way to reduce crime. Today, proactive policing strategies are used widely in the United States. They are not isolated programs used by a select group of agencies but rather a set of ideas that have spread across the landscape of policing. Proactive Policing reviews the evidence and discusses the data and methodological gaps on: (1) the effects of different forms of proactive policing on crime; (2) whether they are applied in a discriminatory manner; (3) whether they are being used in a legal fashion; and (4) community reaction. This report offers a comprehensive evaluation of proactive policing that includes not only its crime prevention impacts but also its broader implications for justice and U.S. communities.
