How courts have described this case

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

omission of ulterior crime from information charging first degree criminal trespass was only a defect in form
defects in the form of an information do not require reversal unless the substantial rights of the defendant are prejudiced
\[T]he information set forth all essential elements of the crime of first degree criminal trespass.\
an information is sufficient when it provides defendant notice of the factual circumstances surrounding the offense so that he can adequately defend himself
although the information did not identify the offense underlying a charge of criminal trespass, the defendant was not entitled to relief because he failed to request a bill of particulars and failed to show that he had been prejudiced
in a burglary charge, failure to allege underlying offense is not substantive error
