[2008] EWHC 508 (Admin)

A magistrates' court had erred in allowing the Crown to amend an existing information and to lay a fresh information before it after the six-month time limit under the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 s.127 had elapsed, as the fresh charge did not arise from the same misdoing as the original offence.
