Should you have to go to court for the same thing more than once ? (15)
You still have to be found guilty in a court again. Having been convicted of felony does not make you guilty by default if a similar crime was committed.

Once a fella was given life for killing a guy. After twenty years he was paroled and discovered that the guy that he was supposed to have killed were living in another town under a different name. He then really killed the guy and went to the gallows. Punished twice for murdering the same guy; and rightly so.

If you 'did the same thing' again....or more than once...of course you should. or am I misreading this?
Oh...I agree about the DNA comment further up as well. You may have been let off as there was not enough evidence which later comes to light.
There is, of course, the 'double jeopardy law'.

What about the 'double jeopardy law'.?
That last line is an all encompassing and far too broad a statement.
And, what is more ... all this info is readily and freely available.
Where you come from pisceslady7, - New south Wales, Australia - there is no longer a 'Double Jeopardy Law'. Since 17 October 2006, the NSW Parliament passed legislation abolishing the rule against double jeopardy under certain serious circumstances.
And, very few states on the planet (five or six) have ever had or still have such a law.
Australian state(for example, Queensland, Victoria, etc)laws have been passed since 2006 to allow re-trials under "fresh and compelling", etc. evidence on the same charges. Most of these laws were passed after concerns to clear up any possible legal premises / arguments that may occur.
There is no 'Double Jeopardy Law' in Ireland. Please see the Criminal Procedure Act 2010. Again - there was no law per say referring to double jeopardy. But, through usage and argument the waters were getting muddied. Hence the Criminal Procedure Act 2010, attempts to clear it all up under the "fresh and compelling", etc. evidence tag.

if people would leave you alone, but that also depends on what you done, as for me I was in contempt according to my ex 8 times in one year. That was until she got a hold of the wrong judge.

Charming as always to have you with us, MrRick. I trust that you're not sending your question from jail. And Connecting Singles are in fact, one of the few places left that provide free legal advise. Have you tried calling Handle On The Law ?------ This poll is Archived ------

Don't understand this, it does not define whether you have done wrong or you are the victim or just a witness. If you did wrong and was found guilty and appealed then you would go again.

I'd send you back again for bumping a two year old thread.

If your caught doing the same thing on different days then the answer is yes...
I thought we had double jeopardy laws that stopped being tried for the same crime....you have to watch those sneaky lawyers always trying to collect it from both angles.
