Using the CRIMPROC Database to Do Research in Criminal Procedure:

I blogged a few days ago about the publication of the new edition of
[1]LaFave, Israel, King & Kerr's Criminal Procedure treatise, in 7
exciting volumes for sale at $689.50. While that's great for law
libraries, a much more useful alternative for most of us is the
CRIMPROC database on [2]Westlaw. CRIMPROC is a Westlaw database
devoted entirely to this treatise; the whole enchilada is there, and
it's all that's there. I've found that researching criminal procedure
questions in CRIMPROC is really helpful, as you can enter in a keyword
or two (or any other Westlaw query) and quickly get to the treatise's
discussion of the topic you need. The new third edition is already
online; my own contribution is the new Chapter 4, "Network
Surveillance."
Of course, this doesn't help you if you don't have access to
Westlaw. But I did want to flag the database for readers who have
Westlaw access and might not know they already have access to the new
treatise.
