If they are co-defendants and charged in the same offense the case numbers probably WILL be the same but differentiated by a different letter of the alphabet (i.e.- '123-45-67-a' or '123-45-67-b,' or similar).

What happen when different part of the criminal system vie for the same case same person same resource and so forth and does this occur?

When different parts of the criminal justice system vie for the same case, it can result in conflicts and inefficiencies. This can occur when multiple law enforcement agencies compete for jurisdiction, when prosecutors from different offices handle the same case, or when there is overlap between various court jurisdictions. Such situations can lead to duplication of efforts, confusion, and delays in the legal proceedings.


Can a person still sue in a civil court if they plead guilty in a criminal case?

Yes, a person can still sue in a civil court even if they plead guilty in a criminal case. A guilty plea in a criminal case does not prevent the individual from pursuing a civil lawsuit related to the same incident. However, the outcome of the criminal case, such as a conviction, may affect the civil case, as the guilty plea can be used as evidence in the civil proceedings.

How can a case be both criminal and civil?

A case can be both criminal and civil when it involves actions that are considered both a violation of criminal law and a breach of civil law. This means that the same incident or behavior can lead to both criminal charges brought by the government and a civil lawsuit filed by individuals seeking compensation for damages.


Can two charges be filed under one cause number in a criminal case?

Yes, two charges can be filed under one cause number in a criminal case if they arise from the same incident or set of circumstances. This is often done to streamline the legal process and ensure that all related offenses are addressed together. However, the charges must be legally permissible to be consolidated, and the court will determine if they can be tried together.

Does double jeopardy apply if new evidence is found in a criminal case?

No, double jeopardy does not apply if new evidence is found in a criminal case. Double jeopardy protects individuals from being tried for the same crime twice based on the same evidence, but new evidence can lead to a new trial.


What is an example of a civil and criminal case?

Civil and Criminal cases are never litigated at the same time in the same court. However, the same transaction (or sequence of events) may lead to both civil and criminal proceedings. For example, O.J. Simpson was prosecuted and subsequently acquitted for the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman in a criminal court. However, he was sued for wrongful death by the families of the victims, found liable, and ordered to pay damages in a later civil suit.


If a civil case is final in one state can another state file criminal charge on the same case?

Yes. The charge may stem or arise from the same or similar offense, but the facts could be used to support a criminal charge in the same, or another, jurisdiction. Think the OJ Simpson case. He was found not guilty of the criminal offense, but guilty of the civil charge. ALSO - defendants have been found not guilty in state or federal courts of an offense, but then are charged by the Feds with... say.... civil rights violations, or some such.
