Tackling Crime

The CPS takes all types of crime seriously and assesses each case brought to them by the police in line with the Code for Crown Prosecutors so each is treated fairly.

Below are four areas of crime that the CPS North West Area has identified as important to the communities we serve.

Anti-Social Behaviour

Anti-social behaviour is any aggressive, intimidating or destructive behaviour that damages or destroys another person's quality of life.
