A JUDGMENT ACQUITTING THE ACCUSED IS FINAL AND IMMEDIATELY EXECUTORY
UPON ITS PROMULGATION, AND THAT ACCORDINGLY, THE STATE MAY NOT SEEK ITS REVIEW
WITHOUT PLACING THE ACCUSED IN DOUBLE JEOPARDY. Such acquittal is final and
unappealable on the ground of double jeopardy whether it happens at the trial
court or on appeal at the Court of Appeals.
