Action on discovery of true name: RCW 10.46.060.
In answer to the arraignment, the defendant may move to set aside the indictment or information, or he or she may demur or plead to it, and is entitled to one day after arraignment in which to answer thereto if he or she demands it.
[ 2010 c 8 § 1039; 1891 c 28 § 50; Code 1881 § 1045; RRS § 2098.]
The motion to set aside the indictment can be made by the defendant on one or more of the following grounds, and must be sustained:
(1) When any person, other than the grand jurors, was present before the grand jury when the question was taken upon the finding of the indictment, or when any person, other than the grand jurors, was present before the grand jury during the investigation of the charge, except as required or permitted by law;
(2) If the grand jury were not selected, drawn, summoned, impaneled, or sworn as prescribed by law.
[ 1983 c 3 § 12; 1957 c 10 § 1; Code 1881 § 1046; RRS § 2099. FORMER PART OF SECTION: Code 1881 § 1047; RRS § 2100, now codified as RCW 10.40.075.]
The ground of the motion to set aside the indictment mentioned in the fourth subdivision of RCW 10.40.070 is not allowed to a defendant who has been held to answer before indictment.
[Code 1881 § 1047; RRS § 2100. Formerly RCW 10.40.070, part.]
An order to set aside the indictment or information as provided in this chapter shall be no bar to a future prosecution for the same offense.
[ 1891 c 28 § 54; Code 1881 § 1050; RRS § 2104.]
If the motion to set aside the indictment [or information] be denied, the defendant must immediately answer the indictment or information, either by demurring or pleading thereto.
[ 1891 c 28 § 52; Code 1881 § 1048; RRS § 2102.]
The defendant may demur to the indictment or information when it appears upon its face either—
(1) That it does not substantially conform to the requirements of this code;
(2) [That] more than one crime is charged;
(3) That the facts charged do not constitute a crime;
(4) That the indictment or information contains any matter which, if true, would constitute a defense or other legal bar to the action.
[ 1891 c 28 § 55; Code 1881 § 1051; RRS § 2105.]
If the demurrer is sustained because the indictment or information contains matter which is a legal defense or bar to the action, the judgment shall be final, and the defendant must be discharged.
[ 1891 c 28 § 56; Code 1881 § 1052; RRS § 2106. FORMER PART OF SECTION: 1891 c 28 § 61; Code 1881 § 1060; RRS § 2114, now codified as RCW 10.40.125.]
The judgment for the defendant on a demurrer to the indictment or information, except where it is otherwise provided, or for an objection taken at the trial to its form or substance, or for variance between the indictment or information and the proof, shall not bar another prosecution for the same offense.
[ 1891 c 28 § 61; Code 1881 § 1060; RRS § 2114. Formerly RCW 10.40.120, part.]
If the demurrer is overruled the defendant has a right to put in a plea. If he or she fails to do so, judgment may be rendered against him or her on the demurrer, and, if necessary, a jury may be impaneled to inquire and ascertain the degree of the offense.
[ 2010 c 8 § 1040; Code 1881 § 1053; RRS § 2107.]
The plea of guilty can only be put in by the defendant himself or herself in open court.
[ 2010 c 8 § 1041; Code 1881 § 1056; RRS § 2110. FORMER PART OF SECTION: Code 1881 § 1057; RRS § 2111, now codified as RCW 10.40.175.]
The plea of not guilty is a denial of every material allegation in the indictment or information; and all matters of fact may be given in evidence under it, except a former conviction or acquittal.
[ 1891 c 28 § 59; Code 1881 § 1058; RRS § 2112.]
If the defendant fail or refuse to answer the indictment or information by demurrer or plea, a plea of not guilty must be entered by the court.
