Whether placing the Petitioner in a position to be twice tried for the same offense after a judgment of acquittal violates Petitioner's constitutional right to due process

QUESTION PRESENTED The Due Process Clause and Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution affords the accused in a criminal case protection against successive prosecutions for the same offense. The law is clear; once a judgment of acquittal is entered, that determination is inviolate. The question presented is: Whether placing the Petitioner in a position to be twice tried for the same offense after a judgment of acquittal violates Petitioner’s constitutional right to due process.
