/ˈdəbl ˈdʒɛpədi klɔːz/ – Phrase
Definition: Điểm cấm truy tố hai lần về cùng một hành vi phạm tội (điểm sửa đổi V hiến pháp Hoa Kỳ)
A more thorough explanation: The double jeopardy clause is a legal principle that prohibits an individual from being prosecuted or punished more than once for the same offense. This protection is provided by the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which states that no person shall “be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb.”
Example: The defendant argued that retrying him for the same crime after his acquittal would violate the double jeopardy clause of the Fifth Amendment.
