Handle Resposta do servidor no Android

No meu aplicativo, estou buscando dados usando serviços da web. Mas, quando o servidor está inoperante ou não está no estado ativo, ele fornece o código de resposta 500 e meu aplicativo é fechad

Guie-me como lidar com essa condição no meu aplicativo. A saída do logcat é mostrada abaixo:

VEJA O SEGUINTE CÓDIGO:

code segmento em que a função é chamada para chamar o serviço da web:

@Override
        protected Void doInBackground(Void... arg0) {
            CategoryArray = new JSONArray();
            CategoryArray = CW
                    .getCategory("url");

            for (int i = 0; i <= CategoryArray.length() - 1; i++) {
                try {
                    Log.v("category array : ", CategoryArray.getString(i));
                    String[] val = CategoryArray.getString(i).split("•");
                    CategoryID.add(i, val[0]);
                    CategoryList.add(i, val[1]);
                } catch (JSONException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
            adapter = new CategoryListAdapter(CategoryActivity.this,
                    CategoryList);
            return null;
        }

função para chamar o serviço da web:

public JSONArray getCategory(String URL){

try {
            HttpPost request = new HttpPost(URL);
            request.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
            request.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");
            // Send request to WCF service
            DefaultHttpClient httpClient1 = new DefaultHttpClient();
            HttpResponse response = httpClient1.execute(request);
            Log.v("response code", response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode()
                    + "");
            responseCode = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
//          if(responseCode > 200){                   // HERE I WS TRYING TO BREAK THE CODE AND TRYING TO RETURN NULL BT UNABLE TO DO SO
//              CategoryArray = new JSONArray();
//              CategoryArray.put(false);
//              return null;

            HttpEntity responseEntity = response.getEntity();
            // Read response data into buffer
            char[] buffer = new char[(int) responseEntity.getContentLength()];
            InputStream stream = responseEntity.getContent();
            InputStreamReader reader = new InputStreamReader(stream);
            reader.read(buffer);
            stream.close();
            CategoryArray = new JSONArray(new String(buffer));
            Log.v("results length : ", CategoryArray.length() + "");
//          }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO: handle exception
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return CategoryArray;
}

veja a linha em que estou comparando o código de resposta. Por favor, me guie sobre como posso quebrar meu código lá e mostrar um brinde à ui
