Description
INTRODUCTION The law and basic commitments of criminal procedure, though subject to unending contest at their margins, are reasonably mature. They have developed mostly in terms of a binary model of the individual's relationship to the state and its enforcement personnel. This model naturally leaves a gap. When the state investigates and prosecutes crime committed within legal organizations--that is, crime on the job--a third player, the legal entity, is present. The presence of a legal entity implies the need for a tripartite model and generates the intuition that existing theory and doctrine about criminal procedure might be incomplete or inadequate for this setting.
