However, in Downum v US (1963), Crist v Bretz (1978), and Martinez v Illinois (2014), the Supreme Court has consistently held that the federal rule for trial by jury is that jeopardy attaches when a trial jury is sworn.

Should any of Donald's jury trials end in a mistrial or hung jury you can guarantee that he will take any attempts to re-try him to the SC and there is a very good chance he wins given which way they lean.

Is this strictly in the cases of hung juries or mistrials? Or can Cannon wait until the jury is set then dismiss charges against Trump, then Trump argue any further attempts to prosecute him for mishandling documents is double jeopardy?
