Law Officer's Pocket Manual
The Law Officer’s Pocket Manual is a handy, pocket-sized, spiral-bound manual that highlights basic legal rules for quick reference and offers examples showing how those rules are applied. The manual provides concise guidance based on U.S. Supreme Court rulings on constitutional law issues and other legal developments, covering arrest, search, surveillance, and other routine as well as sensitive areas of law enforcement.
Annually updated since 1972, The Law Enforcement Pocket Manual, provides police officers, criminal justice practitioners, and students with historical and social context for their role in criminal justice and the guidelines that should be followed in day-to-day policing activities.
New in the 2023 Edition:
- U.S. Supreme Court decides that in a malicious-prosecution suit against an officer, a showing of innocence isn’t necessary—the plaintiff only needs to show the case ended without conviction. (Thompson v. Clark)
- The U.S. Supreme Court continued to limit so-called Bivens actions for when federal law enforcement officials can be held liable for constitutional violations. (Egbert v. Boule)
- The U.S. Supreme Court rules that police cannot be sued for failing to give Miranda warnings. (Vega v. Tekoh)
- The U.S. Supreme Court in two separate cases reinforces the concept of qualified immunity, and says there must be clear guidance that the officer’s conduct violates the Constitution. (City of Tahlequah v. Bond and Rivas-Villagas v. Cortesluna)
- A deeply divided Fifth Circuit rules that a handcuffed man was not “in custody” for the purposes of Miranda warnings. (U.S. v. Coulter)
