Procedure - Indictments

335: Variance and amendment

You could also call this:

“Changing or fixing mistakes in the official document that says what someone did wrong”

This part of the law about ‘Variance and amendment’ for ‘Indictments’ in the Crimes Act 1961 is no longer in use. It was removed on 1 July 2013. This means that whatever rules or information it used to contain don’t apply anymore. If you need to know about current rules for changing or adjusting indictments, you’ll need to look at other parts of the law that are still active.
