14 Chronic great Assize uncompromising trial court game players

Stéphane Durand-Souffland the judiciare Figaro columnist, appears to be in a period of great activity and inspiration. This year, in 2012, he published two books, a book of interviews, black beast with Eric Dupond-Moretti in which he exposes his life to legal fights I have chronicled on Amazon, and now Chills of seated, in September 2012, after publishing in 2011 disappearance of a woman: The Viguier case. It alternates between interviews and books with major players in the legal world (Philippe Bilger An Advocate General escaped, Pierre Alfort I defended Patrice Alegre, Gilles Latapie face Fourniret, Eric Dupont-Moretti Black Beast) and more personal books, they become more numerous lately.

Assize Chills is a collection of columns on court 14 Assize trial or corrections (Clearstream took place before the criminal court) preceded by a brief foreword in which the author explains his objective:
- Guy Georges trial;
- Alègre the trial;
- The Besse trial;
- Ben Salah trial;
- Catineau the trial;
- The Outreau trial;
- Emile Louis trial;
- Hotyat the trial;
- Colonna trial;
- The Fourniret trial;
- Clearstream trial;
- The Viguier trial;
- The Bissonnet trial;
- And Hégo-Moitoiret trial.

For Assize chills, Stéphane Durand-Souffland hears when the criminal trial switches, where the audience suddenly takes another direction, where the fate of the accused is played in a split second during which a shiver runs through the room . These chronicles are very well written and very alive. The author is merciless to some lawyers, members of the prosecution or presidents, but it can also be respectful to the address or the know-how of great presidents of Courts of Assize or large firms. The book reads very easily, cutting into 14 chapters, all built the same way (Announcement of trial and crucial day, place, outcome of the case) makes it possible to scale reading. The only complaint one could make to the work is not to draw a lesson from the criminal justice operation revealed by these chronic, but it was not the purpose of the book. In this respect, Peeve was much more engaged.
