Why can’t the court bring someone back to be judged as guilty in a dinei nefashos case?
Once someone was found innocent in a case of life and death, we don’t reopen the case against them—it’s too dangerous.

Why is it okay to change your mind in dinei mammonos from innocent to guilty, but not in dinei nefashos?
Because in capital cases we are more protective—we only let people change their mind in the direction of saving a life.

Why do you think dinei nefashos are not judged on Erev Shabbos or Yom Tov?
