Procedure - Retrials of previously acquitted persons
378A: Order for retrial may be granted if acquittal tainted
You could also call this:
“A new trial can happen if someone was found not guilty because of cheating or tricks in the first trial.”
This part of the law used to be about when a court could order a new trial if someone was found not guilty, but the trial wasn’t fair. However, this part of the law doesn’t exist anymore. It was removed on 1 July 2013. If you want to know more about retrials, you should look at other parts of the Crimes Act 1961 or ask a lawyer for help.
