Robert Mintz, a partner at McCarter and English, and Richard Pildes, a professor at NYU law school , discuss a Supreme Court decision in Puerto Rico v. Sanchez Valle, which decided that Puerto Rico is not equivalent to a U.S. state for the the purpose of the Constitution's double jeopardy clause, even though the Supreme Court has, in the past, allowed separate prosecutions by a state at the U.S. because they are independent sovereigns. They speak with Bloomberg Law hosts June Grasso and Michael Best on Bloomberg Radio's "Bloomberg Law."
