- Full of good information, thanks Pseudonym.
 pseudonym rated 13 months ago- From the page: "These outlines provide an overview of the essential topics of a legal subject and can be used to prepare for class, organize your notes, and study for exams."
This particular LexisNexis resource (among others) will help clarify some of the "legalese" one often has reason to ponder; e.g., when a certain crime is committed--say computer trespass for instance--and one is a party to this criminal act, they need only refer to the Area of Law Outline entitled Criminal Law to find out the precise definition of criminal activity that their own involvement falls within: the criminal him/herself, his/her accomplice, or an accessory--before or after the fact (or both)? A quick read of Chapter 23 will help one make the proper distinction easily. One may find other chapters helpful, also; two related ones that quickly come to mind are Chapter 21 and 22 which cover solicitation and conspiracy, respectively.
Other law areas are covered well in these LexisNexis Area of Law Outlines besides the one pertaining to criminal law--in toto, they are these: Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, Evidence, Property, Torts, and Trusts & Estates.
