§ 77-17-8. Mistake in charging offense -- Procedure -- Witnesses.

Latest version.

If at any time before verdict or judgment a mistake has been made in charging the proper offense, and it appears that there is probable cause to believe that the defendant is chargeable with another offense, the court may commit him or require him to give bail under Section 77-20-1 for his appearance to answer to the proper charge when filed, and may also require witnesses to give bail for their appearance.
