Description
This is an appeal from a judgment of the District Court of Valencia County, in a cause in which the defendant was charged, and found guilty, upon an Information accusing him of maliciously and wilfully maiming neat cattle. The original Information charged that the act was committed on or about June 26, 1946. However, during the presentation of the State's case, a motion was made by the defendant to require the State to elect as to whether the crime was committed on June 26th or on June 18th. The motion was overruled at the time it was originally made, and it was subsequently renewed at the close of the State's case. At that time the Court sustained the motion to elect, and, as a result of this action, directed the State to amend its Information. The State amended the Information to charge the commission of the crime on June 18, 1946, and thereafter the case proceeded on the basis of this amendment.
