Justice delayed Courts face major cases backlog

December 29, 2025

THE number of open cases in crown courts in the South West has nearly doubled in the last six years, according to the latest statistics from the Ministry of Justice.

- Angus MCINTYRE

Between 2019 and 2025, the ‘open caseload’ leapt from around 3,200 cases in 2019 to around 6,200 cases in 2025.Cases also take far longer to be resolved than they did six years ago; in 2019 the average time between a court receiving a case to it being completed was around 120 days, in 2025 it is about 200 days.

Victims of sexual offences are particularly let down by our legal system. It takes around 320 days for a sexual offences trial to be resolved, double the 120 days it took in 2019.
