1. An appeal taken by the State shall in no case stay or affect the operation of a judgment in favor of the defendant; but if the appeal by the State is from an order granting a motion to set aside an indictment or information, and upon such appeal the order is reversed, the defendant shall thereupon be liable to arrest and trial upon the indictment or information. In all such cases any statute of limitations on the offense from which the appeal is taken is tolled from the time the notice of appeal is filed by the State until such appeal is heard and a ruling made thereon.
2. If the appeal by the State is from an order allowing a motion in arrest of judgment, or granting a motion for a new trial, and upon appeal the order is reversed, the trial court shall enter judgment against the defendant.
