What is Overview of Criminal Law Principles about?
The document discusses several key principles of criminal law, including legality. It notes that legality holds that individuals cannot be criminally liable without a pre-existing law establishing such liability. However, it argues that English law does not fully adopt this principle. For example, judges have at times extended criminal liability through broad interpretations of statutes. Additionally, Parliament can enact retroactive laws and judges are inconsistent in their application of statutes. Overall
