Description
Crime QRH (Quick Reference Handbook) is an easy to use guide to criminal offences in England and Wales, for criminal lawyers and court advocates. It has recently been updated to reflect the new Sentencing Code.
It's a searchable database of offences, providing quick access to key details:
- maximum sentence
- mode of trial (including grave crimes)
- sentencing guidelines
- statutory provision
- statutory alternative offences
- page references to Archbold and Blackstones
- mandatory minimum sentences
- dangerousness provisions
- obligatory/discretionary driving disqualifications and endorsements
- availability of SHPOs, SCPOs, Unduly Lenient Sentence referrals, SOA Notification Requirements, and POCA
Quickly identify the statutory provision, maximum sentence, mode of trial, and Archbold/Blackstone's page reference.
All of the common indictable-only, triable-either-way, and summary-only offences are covered in the App.
Where applicable, access the live Magistrates' Court and Crown Court Sentencing Guidelines for an offence with a single tap.
Any special provisions applicable to the offence are flagged up - for example, easily see if there is a mandatory-minimum sentence, if the offence requires a consideration of 'dangerousness', or if the offence attracts Notification Requirements.
Developed by Sam Willis, a barrister at 5 King's Bench Walk.
What’s New
Version 1.13
- added Public Order Act 2023 offences
- added guidelines for PCOJ and witness intimidation
Ratings and Reviews
Essential for Criminal Barristers
This is absolutely brilliant. Very easy to use, excellent & up to date. I cannot find fault. All levels of seniority should have this.
Genuinely has saved me time. Even if I know the sentence I always check before conferences. This makes things so much easier.
Cannot praise enough. A must have.
A useful crib sheet and faster than the online texts
Sometimes I find that the ebooks for archbold etc are a bit slow to load. This is fast, on my phone and gives a helpful snapshot of the key provisions in respect of each offence, guidelines etc. A useful tool.
Excellent little tool
Think this will be especially useful for pupils and new tenants - excellent that it links through to the Sentencing Council guidelines and further provides references to Archbold/Blackstones.
