Digest Of Supreme Court On Criminal Law 1995-2024

Digest of Supreme Court on Criminal Law (1995–2024) is a compact, issue-organised compilation of the Supreme Court’s leading criminal-law decisions across three decades. The book groups landmark rulings under practical headings — bail and anticipatory bail, mens rea and intention, culpable omissions, possession/consignment doctrines, confessions and dying declarations, witness credibility, electronic evidence and Section 65B compliance, forensic and chain-of-custody issues, sentencing philosophy and remedial trends, economic offences (PMLA, money-laundering), terrorism and national-security jurisprudence, sexual offence jurisprudence, and appellate standards for conviction and acquittal. Each case entry provides a precise headnote, the court’s holding reduced to doctrinal propositions, and a short “practice note” explaining how the precedent functions in courtroom strategy (what to plead, likely evidentiary gaps, appeal posture). The digest contains cross-references, an issue index, and a chronological timeline of landmark rulings to trace doctrinal shifts. Designed for advocates, judges, law clerks, public prosecutors, defence counsel and researchers, this volume reduces research time, supports lightning-fast bench citations, and helps practitioners anticipate judicial reasoning when preparing pleadings or appeals.
