Informational article, not legal advice. Aggregated statistics are not a prediction for any individual case, and I do not promise outcomes.
Data sources I use (and their limits) — before any numbers
- Public Ministry (PÎCCJ) – Activity report for 2024 (PDF) — prosecutor-level solutions are available as totals; offence-by-offence breakdown is not consistently public for all offences.
- Ministry of Justice – open judicial statistics dataset (data.gov.ro) — offence-specific court caseload and convicted persons exist for selected offences in separate spreadsheets; it is not a complete universe of all offences.
- Romanian Code of Criminal Procedure (legislatie.just.ro) — legal definitions for dismissal (Art. 315), waiver of prosecution (Art. 318), and plea agreement (Art. 478+).

Missing: acquittals / terminations by offence
I cannot confirm a public, official offence-by-offence table (2024) that lists convictions vs acquittals vs terminations in one place, from the sources used above. If you have an official report/dataset that contains that breakdown, share it and I can add it without guessing.
