A submission that the prosecution evidence is insufficient for a properly directed jury to convict, made at the close of the prosecution case.
At half-time the defence made a submission of no case to answer, and the judge withdrew the count from the jury.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
