Minnick appealed his conviction for attempted sexual abuse in the first degree, arguing that the amended information charging the offense was insufficient because it failed to plead each element with sufficient specificity. The appellate court reviewed the sufficiency of the information de novo. The court affirmed the conviction, holding that the amended information was sufficient as it contained all essential elements of the offense of attempt and apprised Minnick of the facts, even without alleging a substantial step toward each specific element of the underlying crime.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","other","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=200356","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-of-missouri-v-andrew-p-minnick-d85943","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":38,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
