Legal Definition of jeopardy. 1  1 : exposure to or imminence of death, loss, or injury. 2  2 : the danger of conviction that an accused person is subjected to when on trial for a criminal offense â see also double jeopardy.
That would be the right to not be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb, as the Fifth Amendment states. What exactly does that mean? The general definition of double jeopardy is that it protects people from being prosecuted for the same crime twice. So if you're charged with a crime, tried, and acquitted, the government can't try you again in the hopes of convicting you. But there are limits on how far that protection goes.
