"This new work is of very great importance.  It will assist both the experienced practitioner and the newcomer to ... identify the appropriate appeal mechanism...locate the procedural requirements...and to prepare the necessary documentation...I congratulate the authors on their industry and learning, and on recognising the need for a work of this kind."  - From the Foreword by The Honourable Chris Maxwell AC, President of the Court of Appeal, Supreme Court of Victoria. 

Criminal Appeals and Reviews in Victoria is a new title for Victorian practitioners, which offers practical guidance to all available criminal appeals and reviews in Victoria.

This highly practical work also provides a wealth of flowcharts and sample forms to assist the practitioner.
