People v. Ross

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that the amendment to an indictment, which changed the type of sexual contact from penis-to-anus contact to penis-to-vagina contact in a criminal sexual assault case, was formal
• recognizing that the mere existence of some factual disparities between the other crime and the charged offense does not defeat the admissibility of other crimes evidence because no two independent crimes are ever completely identical in every respect
• holding amendments to an indictment that change the manner in which the defendant committed the offense are formal, not substantive
