Law enforcement agencies and their employees are continually at risk for potential liability related to torts, civil rights violations, and employment law issues. This volume helps police administrators, criminal justice academics, and attorneys understand this concern so that risks may be reduced. By understanding the laws governing these types of issues, law enforcement agencies are better able to monitor the sources of liability and implement risk management strategies to shield their policies, practices, procedures, and protocols from the danger of liability.
