2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Depaz · State v. Larson“Moreover, where an information is deemed insufficient in [the context of a motion to amend an otherwise insufficient information after the State has rested its case in chief], the defendant need not show prejudice to effect dismissal; the insufficiency alone is enough to warrant dismissal. The trial court here should have dismissed the charges against Quismundo without prejudice once the insufficiency of the first amended information was revealed; on this point the parties agree.”
