Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Criminal Procedure — double jeopardy – mistrials — manifest necessity
Kamel Khatib appeals an order denying his motion to dismiss following a mistrial. Khatib argues there was no manifest necessity requiring a mistrial and, therefore, the charges must be dismissed on double jeopardy grounds. We disagree and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
Dist III, Outagamie County, Des Jardins, J., Per Curiam
Attorneys: For Appellant: Carroll, John M., Appleton; For Respondent: Borsheim, Curtis A., Appleton; For Respondent: Wren, Christopher G., Madison
