MOTION TO QUASH



      COMES NOW the accused, by the undersigned counsel, and unto this Honorable Court, moves to quash the information filed against the said accused on the following grounds:

      1. That the criminal liability of the accused has been extinguished;

ARGUMENTS

           (a) That the criminal liability of the accused has been extinguished.
                 (here state the grounds upon which criminal extinction is founded, such as an amnesty, pardon, or marriage of the offended with the offended party in the cases where such pardon or marriage extinguishes criminal liability, prescription of offense or the penalty, and the facts constituting such extinction)

           (b) That the accused has been previously acquitted of the offense charged.
                 (here state the crimes under which he was previously acquitted, the name of the court and the date when he was acquitted, attaching copy of such acquittal)

      WHEREFORE, in view of all the foregoing, it is respectfully prayed that the above-entitled information be quashed, and the accused discharged.
