Erkins v. State
Annotate this CaseDefendant was convicted for class A felony conspiracy to commit robbery resulting in serious bodily injury. Defendant appealed, arguing (1) there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction because the State failed to establish actual serious bodily injury to his alleged victim; and (2) the trial court erred by permitting the State to substantively amend the charging information on the second day of trial. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) the State’s amendment was one of form and not of substance, and the trial court did not err in permitting the change; and (2) the State permitted sufficient evidence at trial to support Defendant’s conviction.
