Conn. Practice Book § 36-17
Substantive Amendment before Trial
If the trial has not commenced, the prosecuting
authority may amend the information, or add additional counts, or file a substitute information. Upon
motion of the defendant, the judicial authority, in
its discretion, may strike the amendment or added
counts or substitute information, if the trial or the
cause would be unduly delayed or the substantive
rights of the defendant would be prejudiced.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
