The case involves a man, Currier, who was charged with breaking and entering, grand larceny, and felon-in-possession of a firearm after allegedly stealing from a house. The trial for the breaking and entering and grand larceny charges resulted in his acquittal. However, he later consented to having the felon-in-possession charge tried separately. Currier argued that issue preclusion prevented the second trial because the prosecution cannot relitigate facts that were already determined in the previous trial.
