Description
Defendants were indicted by the grand jury for shoplifting in violation of § 30-16-20, and for conspiracy, in violation of § 30-28-2, N.M.S.A. 1978. The trial court dismissed the charge of conspiracy on the ground that § 30-16-20C expressly prohibits charging a separate or additional offense if it arises out of the same transaction upon which the shoplifting charge is based. The State contends the trial court misconstrued § 30-16-20C, because it logically refers to additional similar charges such as larceny, and that the second charge should be reinstated.
