In criminal cases, the grant of demurrer is tantamount
to an acquittal and the dismissal order may not be appealed because this would
place the accused in double jeopardy. Although the dismissal order is not
subject to appeal, it is still reviewable but only through certiorari
under Rule 65 of the Rules of Court. (PEOPLE
vs. ATIENZA, 2012, PERALTA,
J.).
