A crime is defined as an offence against the laws of the state. Therefore it is the state that usually brings a person to trial. A private individual can also initiate criminal proceedings, but this is rarely done. Prior to 1986, the police were mainly responsible for prosecuting cases. Today the national prosecution service for England and Wales - Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) decide whether or not to prosecute people in court. The police, investigating the alleged crime, may apprehend suspects and detain them in custody. Once an offender has been charged or summoned by the police, the ‘papers’ are handed over to the CPS branch that handles cases for that police station. The CPS read the papers and decide whether or not there is enough evidence against the defendant and if it is in the public interest to bring that person to court. They can decide to go ahead with the prosecution, send the case back to the police for a caution or to take no further action. Criminal proceedings can be initiated by serving a summons - a formal order setting out the offence and requiring the accused to attend court. When people are charged with minor offences they are not arrested but summoned to appear in court and plead to charges against them. In more serious cases a warrant of arrest, a court document authorising the police to detain someone, is issued by a Magistrate’s Court and executed by police officers. Once proceedings are initiated, the defendant comes before the court. The nature of the charge determines whether the trial is held in Magistrate’s Court or a case is passed up to the Crown Court. In cases where defendants cannot afford their own lawyer, they are entitled under certain circumstances to assistance from legal aid provided by the Criminal Defence Service.
