Trials
(asked on 6th June 2014) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many trials were stayed in each of the last four years.
This question was answered on 16th June 2014
Whilst stays are recorded on HMCTS' case management systems in the Crown Court and magistrates' courts they are not recorded in a way that allows them to identify how many trials were stayed. This could only be done by manually checking every case file at disproportionate cost.
