Summary

Individuals appearing as defendants in criminal cases dealt with by the Crown Court in England and Wales. Companies appearing as defendants have been excluded.

Documentation

One record per defendant per case giving details of defendant characteristics, offence categorisation, court proceedings, and outcomes. Where multiple offence and disposal types were recorded for a case, only details of the most serious offence and most serious disposal are given (please note that as the linked criminal courts datasets provide information on only the most serious offence at the point of committal to court and sentencing, they may not include the full range of offending that may be attributable to defendants, and therefore restricts the ability of researchers to explore any associations and correlations between different types of offences within the cases being heard before the courts). The fields populated for appeals differ from other case types.

Access request cost
Data provision is free from SAIL. Overall project costing depends on the number of people that require access to the SAIL Gateway, the activities that SAIL needs to complete (e.g. loading non-standard datasets), data refreshes, analytical work required, disclosure control process, and special case technological requirements.
