Arizona v. Martin

Petition for certiorari denied on May 18, 2020

Docket No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
19-605 Ariz. N/A N/A N/A N/A OT 2019

Issue: Whether, when a jury expressly states it is "unable to agree" on a defendant"s guilt for a greater offense and convicts the defendant of a lesser offense, and the defendant successfully appeals his conviction, the hung-jury rule permits retrial of the greater offense or Green v. United States instead bars retrial of that offense.
