Termination under either of the following circumstances is not improper: (a) The defendant expressly consents to the termination or by motion for mistrial or in some other manner waives his right to object to the termination; or(b) The trial court, in exercise of its discretion, finds that the termination is manifestly necessary.Effective:1/1/1975
