Old Counterpoints text.
Handout: Civil vs. Criminal law

Handout: Improving the criminal justice system.
  • How do we improve the criminal justice system?
  • If we have a criminal justice system that is sometimes too lenient, sometimes too strict, and sometimes plain wrong, how do we improve it?  Is it possible to improve it?  Do we focus more on Retribution or Rehabilitation.
