How courts have described this case

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

• observing that “even though defendant could not be convicted and sentenced for 3 both second-degree burglary and conspiracy to commit burglary, we find that these are separate offenses for charging purposes
• stating “conspiracy and the substantive offense merge for sentencing purposes pursuant to section 706.4.” (emphasis added)
• “We conclude conspiracy to commit burglary is neither the same offense as the burglary for which defendant was arrested nor a lesser-included offense; therefore, the trial information charging defendant with conspiracy to commit burglary was timely pursuant to rule 27(2)(a).”
