Is a motion for acquittal a final judgment of acquittal?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from USA. v. Byrne, 203 F.3d 671 (9th Cir. 2000):
The issue on appeal, disputed by the parties, is whether the district court's oral granting of a motion for acquittal was a "final judgment of acquittal," thus terminating jeopardy. Both parties rely on United States v. Blount, 34 F.3d 865 (9th Cir. 1994) to support their respective contentions.
