There can be several. The biggest reason is probably - insufficient evidence to sustain the charge against them.
After being acquitted, a person cannot be tried again for the same offense due to the principle of double jeopardy, which protects individuals from being prosecuted multiple times for the same crime. It is a fundamental legal right enshrined in the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution to prevent the government from subjecting individuals to repeated prosecutions.
The term is "justification." In a legal context, justification refers to the process by which individuals are considered righteous or acquitted of their sins in the eyes of the law or deity. It is often associated with religious doctrines such as in Christianity or Islam.
No, being pregnant at 17 in Arizona does not automatically result in legal emancipation. Emancipation requires a formal legal process where a minor is granted more autonomy and rights as if they were an adult. Pregnancy is not a sufficient reason for emancipation.
Double Jeopardy
If your charges were DISMISSED before you went to trial, then your charges were simply dismissed. However if you went to trial, there is no such finding as "innocent," the only verdicts are 'guilty' and 'not guilty.'
Legal insufficiency means that a legal claim or argument lacks the necessary legal basis or elements to succeed in court. It indicates that the evidence or arguments presented are inadequate to support the legal claim being made.
There is no secular LEGAL reason why not.
Sending a letter of termination is legal. Though this is only a professional method after being terminated in person. The letter is to support their reasons and for them to have proof that the termination happened on a certain,time,and for whatever specific reason
In today's world, most employees are considered 'at will' employees. Which means they can terminate you at any time for no reason.
It is never 'legal' to kill someone, but your attorney would use 'self-defence' to get you off the hook. Not only in Illinois, but all over the world self defence may be a ground for being acquitted. Of course there would have to be proof and/or witnesses to show that your life really was being threatened at the time, and many judges would take into consideration if you had a permit for the gun that you were using yourself.
There is no legal reason for it to be illegal. That is why in states where someone has sued to get the law changed is has been.
Yes, it is legal, but it it is rude and it wouldn't matter anyway. UK employers cannot fire someone for being gay.
It is never 'legal'. The exact circumstances will all have to be taken into account. If it was clearly a case of it either being you or the attacker being killed, then you will probably be acquitted. Same for accidentally killing an attacker in self defence - like if you pushed him away from you, but he fell and hit his head, dying from the injury. However if you gained the upper hand and then deliberately killed the attacker, expect to be charged with manslaughter.
If we are talking about a modern country it is possible but difficult. Even not being an illegal immigrant it can be difficult to get legal dependency status. The reason being is that the country that you are trying to will try to prove that you are not marrying for the reason of getting citizenship. You will have to make an convincing argument. Also you cannot have a criminal record, so if you are caught being an illegal immigrant than you have just about screwed up your chances. It is harder to leave places such as the United States, Australia, England etc than it is to get in (without a legal visa)
Unless there is some legal reason preventing it (i.e.- it is being held as evidence) you should be able to.
The legal term 'double jeopardy' is a legal defence whereby an accused person cannot be tried for the same offence twice based on the same fact if they have already been convicted or acquitted of the same offence.

Yes, you can file a legal name change for any reason, as long as it isn't to take the legal name of someone famous. You can change your name to his last name without being married. It is just cheaper court costs if you were married.
