Multiplicitous Indictment Count Dismissed in the Interest of Justice.

The Fourth Department dismissed one count of an indictment finding the indictment “multiplicitous” (charging a single offense in more than one count).  The error was not preserved but the Court reviewed the issue “in the interest of justice.”  People vs Quinn, 1131, KA 11-00278 Fourth Dept. 2-8-13
