Description
Plaintiff-appellant State of Hawai'i (prosecution) appeals the granting by the First Circuit Court of defendant-appellee Muavae Tuipuapua's motion to dismiss his indictment. On appeal, the prosecution contends that the criminal prosecution against Tuipuapua was not barred by double jeopardy on the basis that: (1) jeopardy does not attach to a forfeiture that is not contested by the defendant; and (2) case law indicates that double jeopardy does not bar prosecution of an indictment following the forfeiture of one's property.*fn1
