Crimes Act 1961

Procedure - Filing indictment

345D: Leave to file amended indictments

You could also call this:

“Asking permission to change the official document that says what someone did wrong”

This law was about allowing changes to be made to indictments. An indictment is a formal document that accuses someone of a crime. However, this part of the law no longer exists. It was removed on 1 July 2013. This means you can’t use this rule anymore if you need to change an indictment.
