 Criminal justice - Encyclopedia of Political Information
The pursuit of criminal justice is, like all forms of "justice" or "fairness" or "process", essentially the pursuit of an ideal.
Nowadays, it is sometimes argued that psychiatry is also a central part of the criminal justice system.
Substantially it builds on traditions in common law and tort law that requires all who commit wrong to be penalized.

 LII: Law about...Criminal Procedure
Criminal procedure is composed of the rules governing the series of proceedings through which the substantive criminal law is enforced.
Criminal procedure must balance the defendant's rights and the state's interests in a speedy and efficient trial with the desire for justice.
In criminal cases, the state brings the suit and must show guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, while in civil cases the plaintiff brings the suit and must only show the defendant is liable by a preponderance of the evidence.

Criminal law differs from civil law in that criminal law seeks punishment (punitive damages) beyond the cost of the actual damages.
Criminal offenses are defined differently from state to state; however, the American Law Institute created the Model Penal Code, which serves as a guideline for all states.
Criminal law is the process in which the state prosecutes an individual for committing such crimes.

 Townhall.com :: Columns :: Criminal? by Rebecca Hagelin
His conviction means we've criminalized negligence; that is, mistakes — traditionally thought to be the province of civil courts — are now crimes.
In some instances, the law now makes criminal the failure to act in conformance with some imposed legal duty.
In others, the law criminalizes conduct undertaken without any culpable intent.

 Sentencing Law and Policy
And yet, as was the case during CJ Roberts' confirmation hearings, no attention is being given to criminal justice issues (even though these issues comprise nearly half of the Supreme Court's docket).
Colson's chief work these days is with Prison Fellowship, and this bio calls him "one of the nation's influential voices for criminal justice reform." And recall that, back in March, Colson wrote a powerful op-ed in which he called America's approach to criminal justice "a flawed policy" and advocated alternatives to imprisonment for non-violent offenders.
These issues are, of course, interesting as a matter of criminal justice policy, but they are also potentially significant as a matter of constitutional doctrine.
