Minnesota v. Sago

Certiorari Denied

Petition for certiorari denied on February 24, 2014.

Docket No.13-593
Op. BelowMinn.

Issue

Whether Evans v. Michigan " which held that a finding of insufficient evidence precludes retrial under the Double Jeopardy Clause even if the finding is based on a legally erroneous analysis " or the cases cited in Evans, overruled Lockhart v. Nelson's holding that a post-trial finding of insufficient evidence only precludes retrial under the Double Jeopardy Clause if it is based on a face-value assessment of all the evidence admitted, not just the evidence properly admitted.
