A hung jury, or a judge’s declaration of no verdict, arises when a jury cannot reach a unanimous or majority decision in a criminal trial in England and Wales. A solicitor in this area explains the result and the potential next steps, including the possibility of a retrial or, in limited circumstances, termination of proceedings. They advise the client on procedural options, engage with the Crown Prosecution Service, and prepare for any subsequent proceedings in the Crown Court.
The outcome can mean a retrial, a decision to discontinue, or a fresh trial timetable. A solicitor offers guidance on procedural steps, protects client rights, and coordinates with the Crown Prosecution Service and court hearings to manage the path forward.
