This document is a motion for permanent dismissal filed by the accused in a criminal case. It argues that dismissing the case again would subject the accused to double jeopardy under the Philippine Constitution. It cites previous Supreme Court cases establishing that a dismissal on speedy trial grounds acts as an acquittal barring retrial for the same offense. Therefore, the motion requests that the court permanently dismiss the case against the accused.
