<h1>Section 337 Prohibits Retrial After Conviction or Acquittal, With Exceptions for New Offences or Jurisdiction Issues.</h1> Section 337 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, prohibits retrial of a person for the same offence once they have been convicted or acquitted by a competent court. Exceptions allow retrial for distinct offences with state consent, or if subsequent consequences arise that were unknown during the initial trial. If the first court lacked jurisdiction, retrial for a different offence is permissible. Discharge under section 281 requires court consent for retrial. The section does not affect provisions of the General Clauses Act or section 208 of the Sanhita. Dismissals or discharges are not considered acquittals.
