Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
Suspending the Criminal Justice Act 1994 would make a number of changes to the law, including crimes relating to obscenity and the ways in which police evidence is obtained.
You could start a new petition calling for the law on trespass to be suspended, if that's what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
