Pocket Guide: 2012 Criminal or Traffic Code

For each of these books, a team including experienced street officers and prosecutors, selects the set of laws to include. Their criteria focus on what will be of the most use to a street officer, AND the supporting statutory material, such as definitions. Some statutory material is omitted, where the information is not of use on the street. The indexes are one of the books' best features -- rather than a broad permutation of the words in the titles, the index entries focus on common street parlance for offenses. As an example, rather than something like "Certain persons not to possess firearms"; these indexes would contain: Ex-con in possession, Felon in possession of firearm, Firearm-Felon in possession.
