| It is understood, of course,
that as to the defendants, Volt, Scheide, and Klein, who were acquitted, this
has no application. Having once been acquitted, they cannot be again put in
jeopardy. It is further understood that this is not in any way a retrial of the
case, but is merely a supplementary proceeding for the limited and specific
purpose herein referred to. Defense counsel have heretofore received
translations into German of the prosecution briefs. It is true also that the
right to a review by the Military Governor of the original sentence and of any
modified or amended sentence which may be hereafter entered remains intact and
unimpaired. The Tribunal will receive and consider any briefs filed in
conformity herewith, provided such briefs are in the hands of the translation
division on or before Friday, 30 July 1948. The Tribunal will then await the
translation into English of such briefs as soon thereafter as possible.
The Secretary General will direct the Marshal to immediately serve copies of this order on the respective defense counsel. |
