The criminal process, especially in the Queensland context, has been neglected in the literature. Academic writing has tended to focus on the operation and failings of substantive criminal law.

Criminal Process in Queensland now provides a socio-legal exploration of criminal procedure and sentencing with a focus on the Queensland justice system. Current empirical research is discussed throughout the text, which provides an overview of emerging and continuing issues in criminal justice.

Other topics included for discussion are pre-trial disclosure, ensuring a fair trial and the approach to appeals in Queensland. The book also provides a thorough overview of the sentencing process and available penalties, while also examining a number of inequities experienced within the criminal process.
