8 GCA § 100.10: Motion for Acquittal: Established; When Made.

The motion for a directed verdict is abolished and a motion for judgment of acquittal shall be used in its place. The court on motion of a defendant or on its own motion shall order the entry of a judgment of acquittal of one or more offenses charged in the indictment, information or complaint after the evidence on either side is closed if the evidence is insufficient to sustain a conviction of such offense or offenses. If a defendant's motion for judgment of acquittal at the close of the evidence offered by the government is not granted, the defendant may offer evidence without having reserved the right.
