Section 100.50. Superseding informations and prosecutor's informations

1.  If at any time before entry of a plea of guilty to or commencement
  of  a  trial  of  an  information or a prosecutor's information, another
  information or, as the case may be, another prosecutor's information  is
  filed  with the same local criminal court charging the defendant with an
  offense charged in the first instrument, the first such  instrument  is,
  with  respect  to  such  offense, superseded by the second and, upon the
  defendant's  arraignment  upon  the  latter,  the  count  of  the  first
  instrument  charging  such  offense must be dismissed by the court.  The
  first instrument is not, however, superseded with respect to  any  count
  contained  therein  which  charges  an offense not charged in the second
  instrument.
    2.  At any time before entry of a plea of guilty to or commencement of
  a trial of an information, the district attorney may file with the local
  criminal  court  a  prosecutor's  information  charging   any   offenses
  supported,  pursuant  to  the standards prescribed in subdivision one of
  section 100.40, by the allegations of the factual part of  the  original
  information  and/or  any  supporting depositions which may accompany it.
  In such case, the original information is superseded by the prosecutor's
  information and, upon the defendant's arraignment upon  the  latter,  is
  deemed dismissed.
    3.   A misdemeanor complaint must or may be replaced and superseded by
  an information pursuant to the provisions of section 170.65.
