Produktbeschreibung

The Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act 2018 created a new criminal offence of Domestic Abuse, covering a range of psychological, sexual, financial and physical abusive behaviours perpetrated against a partner or ex-partner.

This title provides criminal practitioners and all those working on domestic abuse cases with clear guidance on how to work within the new legislative framework. Following the 2108 Act, it examines the context and background to the new legislation and sets out chapters to follow the Act's structure.

The book also covers important case law and key legislation including:

· Abusive Behaviour and Sexual Harm (Scotland) Act 2016, s 2 (disclosure of intimate images)
· Communication Act 2003, s 127 (sending offensive or indecent material)
· Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010, ss 38 and 39 (abusive and threatening behaviour, stalking)
· Criminal Law (Consolidation) (Scotland) Act 1995, s 52 (vandalism)
· Sexual Offences (Scotland) Act 2009

Written by expert practitioners with extensive experience of working within the criminal justice system, this title is an essential guide to the Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act 2018.
