Can a person be tried again for same offense in CT., if there was a mistrial? But a mistrial just means you messed up the first time, and you need a do-over. The state makes no difference. A person can be tried again in ANY state if there was a mistrial. A mistrial is basically saying the trial malfunctioned and needs to be started again. A mistrial is no reason for escaping trial in any state. It just means that someone screwed up and the court needs to start all over again.

Can a person be tried for the same crime twice? Once state gov and one Federal gov if both laws were violated? Best Answer Thanks! The simple answer is yes. A person can be tried twice for the same act, once by the state and once by the feds. Double jeopardy does not apply because they are separate sovereigns. The state can prosecute the violation of a state crime, and the feds can prosecute the violation of a federal crime. In some states, it matters in what order this happens. In New York, for example, the state cannot prosecute someone for the same act if the feds went first.

This is allowed by the European Convention on Human Rights (note the word finally in the above quotation).

Is Seltzer Bad For Your Teeth? I like to drink seltzer water — I make it at home from tap water, with a CO2 cartridge. A neighbor told me that she’s asked “a million dentists” and they all agree that seltzer is very bad for your teeth. I believe she’s thinking of carbonic acid.

- Not really. Trying again doesn’t predicate the procedure being the same unlike the first statement. You can try something again using a different technique in the hopes of a desired outcome. Doing the dame thing and expecting different results is directly contradictory. Doing the same thing repeatedly is intended to get the same results. If you expect different results you are either not going the same thing over and over or your expectations are based on illogical precedence.

Can I Be Charged Twice for the Same Crime? The Fifth Amendment does not prevent a defendant from being charged twice for the same type of crime. For example, let’s say you were charged with simple assault against Complainant A in 2014. Now it is 2015, you are being charged with simple assault again – this time against Complainant B, in a completely unrelated matter.

What Is a Motion to Quash? Motions to quash are sometimes denied for various reasons. For instance, a motion to quash can’t be granted if the mistake from the lower court was due to a lawyer’s conduct, not the court’s conduct. If that happens, the case will have to proceed with the ruling from the lower court in effect.
