A Spalding man faces a possible retrial after a jury cleared him of three sexual offences but failed to reach verdicts on six other charges.
Barry Severn, 37, of Stonegate, Spalding, had denied nine historic sex charges against two girls during a week long trial at Lincoln Crown Court.
All the allegations were alleged to have occurred between 2002 and 2009 when Mr Severn was a teenager or young adult.
The jury found Mr Severn not guilty of three charges against one of the complainants after deliberating for nine hours.
Mr Severn was cleared of one indecent assault charge, one offence of assault by penetration and one count of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity.
The jury failed to reach verdicts on two indecent assault charges and two sexual assaults relating to the same complainant.
Jurors also failed to reach verdicts on two indecent assault charges relating to a second complainant.
Following the verdicts Judge James House KC gave the prosecution 14 days to decide if they will seek a retrial against Mr Severn.
Giving evidence during his trial, Mr Severn insisted he did not have any sexual interest in the children.
Mr Severn was granted bail until a hearing at Lincoln Crown Court on March 2.
