Thompson v. State

*809OPINION

By the Court,

Saitta, J.:

In this appeal, we consider whether the State’s election to dismiss one of two charging documents and to proceed on the other constitutes “another prosecution” under NRS 178.562(1). Specifically, we address whether the 1997 amendment to NRS 178.562(1) affects our holding in Turpin v. Sheriff, 87 Nev. 236, 484 P.2d 1083 (1971).
