Written for both lawyers and judges, New York Confessions offers complete coverage of admissibility and exclusion of a defendant's statements under New York law and is divided into three sections:

•Admissibility and Suppression of a Defendant's Statement: Part 1 covers the Miranda rule, New York's right to counsel rules, traditional involuntariness, statements derived from unlawful conduct, and Criminal Procedure Law section 60.45

•Statement Suppression Litigation: Part 2 covers notice requirements under the Criminal Procedure Law, motion papers, responses and orders granting hearings, suppression hearings, burden of proof, courtroom closure, rules of evidence, discovery, reopening of suppression hearings, and appeals from suppression rulings.

•Use of a Defendant's Statements at Trial: Part 3 covers express admissions, implied and adoptive admissions, admissions by counsel, the rule of fairness, redaction, use of statements made in a courtroom, use of guilty pleas, use of silence, use of suppressed statements for impeachment purposes, and litigation of the voluntariness of a defendant's statements before the jury.

This handy resource also includes a timeline setting out the chronological development of the law of confessions.
