People v. Lo Cigno

In People v. Lo Cigno (1965) 237 Cal. App. 2d 470, the court began its opinion with this statement: "The single issue argued on this appeal is whether dismissal of an indictment, following defendant's conviction and reversal of that conviction, barred his subsequent prosecution on a second indictment for the same offense." ( Id. at p. 470.) Relying on People v. Henderson, supra, 60 Cal. 2d 482, the Lo Cigno court wrote that it "is . . . well settled that a trial resulting in conviction, followed by reversal on appeal for errors committed at the trial, does not bar retrial. " ( People v. Lo Cigno, supra, 237 Cal. App. 2d 470 at p. 472.)
