How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- the procedural aspect of double jeopardy refers to the bar on “successive prosecutions,” and its rationale is “to prevent harassment of the accused”
- where “several crimes arising out of one criminal transaction are tried at the same time,” the bar against multiple convictions “does not operate until after the verdicts”
- “Where crimes are tried separately it is generally held that if multiple convictions arising out of a single prosecution are barred they will likewise be barred from successive prosecution.”
- \[W]hen crimes are to be prosecuted separately the more serious crimes should be prosecuted first to avoid the conviction of a lesser crime barring a subsequent prosecution for a more serious crime.\
- “[W]hen crimes are to be prosecuted separately the more serious crimes should be prosecuted first to avoid the conviction of a lesser crime barring a subsequent prosecution for a more serious crime.”
