About the Book

The 2nd edition of this essential handbook on coronial law incorporates the significant changes in legislation and case law in this area of law since its first publication. These include: - The new understanding of the impact of Article 2 ECHR, which protects the right to life, on the conduct of inquests; - The changes in the burden of proof for suicide and unlawful killing to the civil standard of proof; - New chapters on air, marine and railway accidents and inquests resumed after criminal proceedings. The Inquest Book is the definitive guide to inquests, providing clear commentary on the relevant legislation and case law summaries in a single volume. The first half of the book is structured according to the elements of an inquest and the second half according to the subject matter of a coroner's investigation. Each chapter provides an overview of the legislation and relevant guidance, followed by case summaries and extracts. This new edition includes 'mini' indices within the book, for easier internal reference.
