OPINION

PARKER, Judge.

The State appeals from the trial court’s order dismissing charges of criminal sexual conduct in the first and third degrees on double jeopardy grounds. The trial court granted the prosecutor’s motion for a mistrial before completion of the victim’s direct testimony, based on allegedly prejudicial remarks in the prosecutor’s opening statement. Subsequently, the trial court granted defendant’s motion for dismissal. We reverse and remand for trial with costs and attorney’s fees assessed against the State for this appeal and for the first trial.
