Search 48 U.S.C. § 1493 : US Code - Section 1493: Prosecution; authorization to seek review; local or Federal appellate courts; decisions, judgments or orders
The prosecution in a territory or Commonwealth is authorized -
unless precluded by local law - to seek review or other suitable
relief in the appropriate local or Federal appellate court, or,
where applicable, in the Supreme Court of the United States from -
(a) a decision, judgment, or order of a trial court dismissing
an indictment or information as to any one or more counts, except
that no review shall lie where the constitutional prohibition
against double jeopardy would further prosecution;
(b) a decision or order of a trial court suppressing or
excluding evidence or requiring the return of seized property in
a criminal proceeding, not made after the defendant has been put
in jeopardy and before the verdict or finding on an indictment or
information, if the prosecution certifies to the trial court that
the appeal is not taken for purpose of delay and that the
evidence is a substantial proof of a fact material in the
proceeding; and
(c) an adverse decision, judgment, or order of an appellate
court.
