Information {CR-123}

AOC-CR-123 - INFORMATION. This form is used in the General Court of Justice of North Carolina by a prosecutor to formally charge a defendant with one or more criminal offenses. It is utilized in either District or Superior Court and serves as a substitute for an indictment when a defendant waives their right to have a grand jury issue formal charges. The form includes essential details such as the defendant's name, address, race, sex, date of birth, and spoken language, along with information about whether a court interpreter is needed. It lists the alleged offenses, the dates they occurred, and the applicable General Statutes (G.S.) under which the charges are filed. Each offense is followed by a sworn statement from the prosecutor asserting, upon information and belief, that the defendant unlawfully committed the acts described. The form also includes a section for the defendant and their attorney to sign a waiver, confirming that the defendant voluntarily agrees to proceed without an indictment. www.FormsWorkflow.com
