Description
This appeal is concerned with the provision of N.M. Const., Art. II, § 15 which provides that no person shall "be twice put in jeopardy for the same offense * * *." The issue presented is whether a municipal court conviction may bar a subsequent district court prosecution. On the issue presented we hold that the principles of double jeopardy apply.
