ACQUITTAL

The legal and formal certification of the innocence of a person who has been charged with a crime.

Acquittals in fact take place when a jury finds a verdict of not guilty. Acquittals in law take place by operation of law such as when a person has been charged as an ACCESSORY to the crime of ROBBERY and the principal has been acquitted.
