Minnesota v. Sahr
Petition for certiorari denied on February 25, 2013
Issue: Whether this Court should address an issue it reserved in Serfass v. United States and Sanabria v. United States, on whether "a defendant who is afforded an opportunity to obtain a determination of a legal defense prior to trial and nevertheless knowingly allows himself to be placed in jeopardy before raising the defense" forfeits or waives his double jeopardy protections.
