The latest issue of the Criminal Law Journal <\/em>(Volume 37 Part 4) contains the following material:<\/p>\n EDITORIAL<\/a><\/p>\n Jurisdiction over criminal acts on cruise ships: Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps?<\/b><\/em><\/a> <\/b><\/em>\u00e2\u20ac\u201c <\/i>Kate Lewins and Nick Gaskell<\/p>\n Crimes committed on board a ship, particularly when at sea, pose a more dynamic legal scenario than the same crime committed on land. A ship is subject to the laws of its flag state, but a criminal act committed on board will almost inevitably lead to an overlap in jurisdictional claims. This article considers the various factors that determine when and whether states other than the flag state may claim jurisdiction to prosecute criminal acts committed at sea, and compares the claimed extra-territorial operation in the domestic laws of four states. It also considers the recent introduction of cruise ship regulation in the United States, the moves to introduce guidelines in Europe, and supports the momentum building towards regulation of the cruise ship industry in Australia.<\/p>\n To purchase this article, complete the Individual Article Sale<\/a> order form and email it to tlranz.journal.orders@thomsonreuters.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Involving juries in sentencing: Insights from the Tasmanian jury study <\/b><\/em><\/a>\u00e2\u20ac\u201c <\/i>Kate Warner and Julia Davis<\/p>\n This article reviews the findings of the Tasmanian jury sentencing study that are relevant to the debate about directly involving juries in sentencing outcomes, a debate that has been revived by a proposal to allow juries in Victoria to recommend a minimum non-parole period. The results support the conclusion of the New South Wales Law Reform Commission that proposals to involve juries directly in sentencing decisions would encounter considerable practical and procedural problems and would raise concerns about the fairness of the process.<\/p>\n To purchase this article, complete the Individual Article Sale<\/a> order form and email it to tlranz.journal.orders@thomsonreuters.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n CASE AND COMMENT<\/a><\/p>\n PHILLIPS\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 BRIEF<\/a><\/p>\n DIGEST OF RECENT CRIMINAL CASES<\/a><\/p>\n For the pdf version of the table of contents, click here:\u00c2\u00a0LOLA – Crim LJ Vol 37 Pt 4 Contents<\/a> or here:\u00c2\u00a0WAU – Crim LJ Vol 37 Pt 4 Contents<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
