Attempting The Impossible: The Emerging Consensus, Ira Robbins
Attempting The Impossible: The Emerging Consensus, Ira Robbins
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
Impossible attempts are situations in which an actor fails to consummate a substantive crime because he is mistaken about attendant circumstances.
