Syllabus

There is no requirement for the district court to advise defendants they may plead not guilty based on the defense of double jeopardy. The defense of double jeopardy is not presentable to the jury unless there is a question of fact. Rule 803(24), N.D.R.Ev., which provides an exception to certain hearsay statements made by a child about sexual abuse, does not apply to non-hearsay testimony.

Judges: McEvers, Lisa K. Fair
