By very kind permission of Hart Publishing, and as a result of the initiative of Andrew Simester, I reproduce here some of the most significant casenotes on recent criminal law cases that were originally published on the companion website to Simester and Sullivan’s Criminal Law: Theory and Doctrine:
B v DPP (strict liability)
R v G (recklessness)
R v Hasan (duress)
R v Hinks (theft)
R v Martin (Anthony), Shaw v R (self-defence)
R v Wacker (manslaughter)
Re A (necessity)
