Trying a person again, after dismissal of charges or being acquitted of a criminal charge, is expressly prohibited, something called double jeopardy, if no further evidence can be presented.

So what was dug up that was missing before?

Well, technically, no. I mean, I could be accused of killing someone, and then if didn’t, get those charges dismissed.

But if I was accused of killing yet ANOTHER person, they could try me again...

But inherently, I get what you mean and agree with you.

This is a civil matter, not criminal.

This is a completely different case. They are badgering him. That’s why he countersued. The last case was same sex marriage. This one is “transgender” celebration. It’s a different thing.
