Procedure after allowance of arrest of judgment
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. If, from the evidence on the trial,
there is reasonable ground to believe the defendant guilty, and a new
indictment, information or complaint can be framed upon which the defendant may
be convicted, the court may order the defendant to be recommitted to the
officers of the proper county, or admitted to bail anew to answer the new
indictment, information or complaint.
2. If the evidence shows the defendant
guilty of another offense, the defendant shall be committed or held thereon,
and in neither case shall the verdict be a bar to another prosecution.
3. But if no evidence appear sufficient to
charge the defendant with any offense, the defendant shall, if in custody, be
discharged; or, if admitted to bail, the defendants bail shall be exonerated;
or, if money has been deposited instead of bail, it shall be refunded to the
defendant, and the arrest of judgment shall operate as an acquittal of the
charge upon which the indictment, information or complaint was founded.
