Memorandum to my supervisor in the state of Montana. APA. No plagiarism please and please use my text 6th edition. Please hit distinguished marks in the scoring guide.


Overview

There are three categories of social-order crimes (the fourth will be covered later in the course). The three categories that fall under the heading of offenses against public order and the administration of justice are 1) crimes against public order and safety, such as disorderly conduct and reach of peace; 2) crimes against justice and the administration of justice, such as treason and perjury; and 3) crimes against the environment, such as crimes that violate environmental laws. These social-order or public-order crimes are offenses that disturb society in such a way that the action taken is seen as invading the peace and tranquility of society.
