Former Icelandic PM Geir Haarde has been found not guilty of negligence over the 2008 financial crisis that saw the island's economy go into meltdown.
A special court in Reykjavik said Mr Haarde would face no punishment and his legal expenses would be paid for.
But he was found guilty of one of the four charges: not holding cabinet meetings when things turned critical.
Mr Haarde, 61, is thought to be the first world leader to face criminal charges over the financial crisis.
