Domestic Violence Law - A Comprehensive Overview of Cases and Sources (Paperback)


A unique and comprehensive collection of sources including published appellate cases and law review articles but also selections from the fields of sociology, psychology, and anthropology. Samples of current legislation, Congressional memoranda, restraining order forms, and articles from the popular press, including newsletters and brochures from hard-to-obtain sources are included. Ms. Lemon has taught this course since 1988 and has written many pioneering pieces of legislation in this area. The materials are comprehensive in examining different points of view on the subject of domestic violence law. They help the student explore the tension between theory and practice, a critical point in teaching this subject. A historical perspective is given so that students can see both the ways the laws have changed over the past century and also the ways they have not changed. This reader lends itself to discussions of the role of the attorney in crafting the law, not simply following it.
