ROBERTS, Justice.
The State appeals from an order of the Superior Court, Knox County, dismissing an indictment against Dennis Eugene Friel on the ground of former jeopardy. The State contends that the mistrial order, which terminated the previous trial, was consented to by the defendant or, alternatively, was justified by manifest necessity. Because we find no support for the State's contentions, we affirm the dismissal.
