It means that if you're accused of murder and you go to trial and are found not guilty, the case is closed. That's that. No matter how much new evidence is found, you can't be convicted of that same crime. And in the game show, the categories are worth double the points, yes.

Does double jepardy apply in appeal from municipal court in a de novo procedeing?

No. A de novo appeal takes place when the lower court was not a court of record, so no transcript exists for review. It is a new trial, a do-over, where the evidence presented and the witnesses who appear may be the same or different. There is no double jeopardy issue because the government is not bringing the charges a second time. The de novo appeal is made by the defendant after they are found guilty in the lower court.
