City of Cut Bank v. Hall
Annotate this CaseFollowing a jury trial, Rhonda Hall was sentenced on her conviction of charges of obstructing a peace officer, disorderly conduct, and assault with a bodily fluid. At the conclusion of the City's case, the district court judge expressed her concern that the City had not presented sufficient evidence to meet its burden of proof. Defense counsel subsequently filed a motion that the case be dismissed for insufficient evidence, which the trial court granted. The Supreme Court affirmed the district court's judgment, finding that inasmuch as the court dismissed the City's case against Hall for insufficient evidence, Hall stood acquitted and could not be retried, and the City had no appeal from the district court's decision.
