Recht: Verträge | | Englisch Begriff oder Satz: "manifest necessity" standard | In characterizing her action as a mistrial, rather than a dismissal, the judge ordinarily intends that her action will not prevent the prosecution from re-trying the defendant on the same indictment or information. It is not the case, however, that a re-trial is invariably permitted following the declaration of a mistrial. Whether the prosecution may re-try the defendant after a mistrial depends, in the first instance, on whether the defendant acquiesced in the decision to declare a mistrial. If the defendant opposed the declaration of a mistrial, then a re-trial is permitted only if the judge's decision to order a mistrial meets the ///"manifest necessity" standard./// If the defendant either requested the mistrial or consented to it, then she may be re-tried, unless the prosecution goaded or provoked the defendant into seeking a mistrial.
From a U.S. law course.
Thanks for your help. |

Thanks.

as opposed to "necessite absolute" or "necessite raisonable"
(apologies for the lack of accents- stupid American keyboard...)
In legal jargon "manifest" is a fairly fuzzy term. (see Garner's A Dictionary of Modern Legal Usage).
"Manifest necessity" is explained below and would seem to draw from the concept of "Manifest destiny" which was a commonly held belief in the US during the 1800s. The belief that God had destined Americans to expand from the East Coast to the West. I don't know whether is important to keep this idea in the translation or not. I suppose that would depend on how closely you believe the two terms are linked and the purpose of your translation.
------------------------------------------------------
A different situation is presented when a mistrial is declared over the defendant's objection. Reprosecution is then allowed only if the mistrial resulted from "manifest necessity," a standard more rigorous than "reasonable necessity," and less exacting than "absolute necessity." A mistrial that could have been reasonably avoided terminates jeopardy, but jeopardy continues if a mistrial was unavoidable.
The manifest necessity standard has been satisfied where mistrials have resulted from defective indictments, disqualified or deadlocked jurors, and procedural irregularities willfully occasioned by the defendant. Manifest necessity is never established for mistrials resulting from prosecutorial or judicial manipulation. In determining manifest necessity, courts balance the defendant's interest in finality against society's interest in a fair and just legal system.

The only site I see that has it in French is a Canadian site:

and here they keep the "Manifest" which is best actually.
