Description: Criminal Injuries Compensation : State and Offender Compensation for Violent Crime, Hardcover by Miers, David; Collins, Ben (EDT); Wikeley, Nicholas (EDT); Ryder, Ernest, Sir (FRW), ISBN 0198806620, ISBN-13 9780198806622, Brand New, Free shipping in the US The 2012 Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme (CICS) deals with some 33,000 applications for compensation each year. It has, since 1964, been one of the principal means by which the state aims to meet victims expectations following an offence of violence, but it also displays a clear
doctrinal effort to differentiate deserving from undeserving victims. Over much of the same period criminal courts and agencies have enjoyed powers to order offenders to pay compensation to their victims, most recently as an element of restorative justice.
Split into two parts, Criminal Injuries Compensation is an authoritative analysis of the statutory provisions governing these various remedies. Part One, State Compensation, analyses the Schemes defining provisions: what constitutes a criminal injury, what persons and injuries may be compensated,
the rules governing the victims own conduct and character, the assessment of the award, and the procedures governing applications, appeals and judicial review. Part Two, Offender Compensation, analyses the conditions under which a criminal court may make a compensation order as an element of its
sentencing decision, concluding with the potential of restorative justice to deliver offender compensation to victims. Th also touches on the wider political and criminal justice context of compensation.
Written and edited by an expert academic and practitioner team, Criminal Injuries Compensation is an essential text for all those with an interest in understanding the statutory, judicial and administrative rules that govern state and offender payment of compensation to victims of violent crime.
