What is a submission of no case to answer?



What is  a submission  of  no  case to answer?

What effect  does it have  when  raised  in a criminal cases?

A submission  of  no case to answer  is the submission made by the defending  party to a case  that  the plaintiff’s or  presentation’s case has not been  made out  sufficiently to require him  make the defense.  

The  effect  of  raising  it  in  criminal  case is that, the court must make a  ruling  on it  and if  the court finds that  there is no  case to answer, the case will  be dismissed  and accused acquitted.  But where it  is found  that  there is a case  to answer, the accused will be required to  make the defense.
