This new title is an abridged version of Clayton Ruby’s highly respected publication, Sentencing, 10th Edition, and particularly Chapter 23, which examines the historical and modern considerations applied in determining ranges of sentence for particular offences.

- Find the current range of sentence in each relevant jurisdiction
- Find the offence number and penalty specified under the Criminal Code or the CDSA
- Be alerted to the most important considerations in determining the appropriate range of sentence for the offence, including statutorily mandated considerations
