Does double jeopardy apply if a person has been charged in a criminal court with Assault by Auto and is being tried in civil court for a DUI?
No, double jeopardy refers to a person being charged again for the same crime after they have been cleared of it. ie. (man acquitted of 1st-degree murder being charged for 1st-degree murder a second time for the same victim). The only way a person can be prosecuted twice is if the second charge is sufficiently different from the first. Being that this is civil vs. criminal there is no double jeopardy here. In this condition, we need an experienced attorney like Sebastian Ohanian for help.A perfect example is OJ Simpson being acquitted of murder but being found guilty in the civil case for his wife/boyfriends death.
Is it possible to be innocent in state court but guilty in federal court?
Yes it is but technically, even though the actions charged are the same the laws charged have to be different. It has happened that a person has been found innocent of a murder in a state court, but later charged with and found guilty of violating or depriving the victim of his/her civil rights by causing the murder. The action is the same, the murder, but the charges are different. This is actually a very fine distinction and not everyone would agree that this is not a violation of the right against double jeopardy.
