Smith, Hogan and Ormerod's Criminal Law

Smith, Hogan and Ormerod's Criminal Law, formerly published as Smith and Hogan's Criminal Law, and referred to as Smith and Hogan, is a doctrinal textbook on criminal law in England and Wales.[1][2]

It is used in university law schools, relied upon throughout the legal profession and in the courts,[3] and is regularly cited in the High Court of Justice, Court of Appeal (Criminal Division) and the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom.[4]

The text was originally co-written by Professor Sir John C. Smith and Professor Brian Hogan (first to seventh editions, 1965-1992). Following the death of Hogan in 1996, Smith completed the eighth, ninth and tenth editions (1996, 1999, 2002) alone. After the publication of the tenth edition, Smith placed future editions of the work in the hands of Professor David Ormerod.[3][5] Ormerod completed the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth editions (2011, 2015, 2018) alone and was then joined by Karl Laird for the fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth editions (2015, 2018 and 2021). Matthew Gibson joined them for the seventeenth edition (2024).

Additional chapters are published as online only additional resources, and there are companion Cases and Materials and Essentials of Criminal Law series.
