    If they are different charges it’s not double jeopardy. Double jeopardy means being tried twice for the same crime and same charge.

      I had, perhaps incorrectly, taken OCs comment to mean filing the same charges again, looking for a second trial that actually proceeds while the first is endlessly delayed.

      Totally separate charges would indeed be a separate matter.
