Book excerpt: The Legal Division Reference Book is the culmination of almost forty years of dedicated efforts of many members of the Office of Chief Counsel's Legal Division at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers (FLETC.) The reader will find brief descriptions of the facts, issues and holdings of important Supreme Court cases concerning many Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendment issues, as well as several others. There is also an Additional Resources section which includes useful materials for your studies. This Reference Book is also helpful in preparing for legal examinations. The facts of each case can mimic the material that make up multiple choice test questions. The issue in each case brief can serve as a test question. Students may attempt to answer the question posed in the issue before reading the Supreme Court's answer and rationale as a means of testing knowledge gained from course work and the Handbook.
