Majority of police files for court are inadequate, report finds Nine in ten police reports for prosecutors are inadequate, forcing delays in court cases, while some officers do not understand what a “key witness” is, a study has found. Important information is often left out of the files even though they are a crucial document for prosecutors to present a case in court, the joint report by the HM inspectorates for constabulary and the Crown Prosecution Service found. It reviewed 40 files, of which only three – or 7.5 per cent – were deemed adequate in terms of providing a summary of the evidence.
