“it is deemed appropriate to promote a fair determination of the defendant's guilt or innocence of each offense.”
11 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Lewis · State v. Hamilton“Two or more offenses may be charged in the same indictment or information in a separate count for each offense if the offenses charged, whether felonies or misdemeanors, are of the same or similar character or are based on the same act or transaction or on two or more acts or transactions connected together or constituting parts of a common scheme or plan; provided that the offenses joined must be triable by the same mode of trial.”
7 later decisions quote this exact passage“"For this reason we hold that when crimes, which have been joined simply because they are the same or similar character offenses, are indeed legitimate `other crimes' under Prieur and its progeny (the offenses are sufficiently similar, the evidence is relevant to a real issue in each case, and the prejudicial effect of the evidence does not outweigh its probative value), a decision not to sever the crimes will normally be proper."”
