The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) maintains a central record of the outcomes of prosecutions, on a defendant basis, at the Crown Court. Prosecution outcomes comprise convictions; guilty pleas and convictions after trial. Unsuccessful outcomes represent all other outcomes and include judge ordered acquittals (discontinuances, indictment stayed, charges left on file and no evidence offered), judge directed acquittals, acquittals after trial and administrative finalisations.The table below shows the volume and proportion of defendants as a total of the 13 CPS Areas, where the CPS offered no evidence, where a judge ordered or directed an acquittal and where the defendant was acquitted after trial, in each of the last six years.<table><tbody><tr><td> </td><td>2008-2009</td><td>2009-2010</td><td>2010-2011</td><td>2011-2012</td><td>2012-2013</td><td>2013-2014</td></tr><tr><td>(i) Offer No Evidence</td><td>9,734</td><td>10,537</td><td>12,433</td><td>10,543</td><td>9,106</td><td>7,795</td></tr><tr><td>% Offer No Evidence</td><td>9.4%</td><td>9.6%</td><td>10.6%</td><td>9.8%</td><td>9.5%</td><td>8.3%</td></tr><tr><td>(ii) Judge OrderedAcquittal</td><td>12,198</td><td>12,930</td><td>14,958</td><td>12,527</td><td>11,099</td><td>10,714</td></tr><tr><td>% Judge OrderedAcquittal</td><td>11.7%</td><td>11.7%</td><td>12.8%</td><td>11.7%</td><td>11.6%</td><td>11.5%</td></tr><tr><td>(iii) Judge DirectedAcquittal</td><td>990</td><td>1,048</td><td>1,101</td><td>857</td><td>774</td><td>620</td></tr><tr><td>% Judge DirectedAcquittal</td><td>1.0%</td><td>1.0%</td><td>0.9%</td><td>0.8%</td><td>0.8%</td><td>0.7%</td></tr><tr><td>(iv) Acquittal After Trial</td><td>5,703</td><td>6,316</td><td>6,810</td><td>6,290</td><td>5,998</td><td>5,584</td></tr><tr><td>% Acquittal After Trial</td><td>5.5%</td><td>5.7%</td><td>5.8%</td><td>5.9%</td><td>6.3%</td><td>6.0%</td></tr><tr><td>TOTAL PROSECUTED</td><td>103,890</td><td>110,146</td><td>116,898</td><td>107,244</td><td>95,862</td><td>93,446</td></tr></tbody></table>Data Source: CPS Case Management Information System
