The conviction in NK12686 was quashed because the Particulars charged an attempt to steal the handbag itself whereas the evidence established an attempt to steal from inside the handbag and the information could not be amended after conviction; the conviction in NK20043 was upheld because the appellant suffered no demonstrable prejudice from the same magistrate hearing the two matters, given his consent and the strength and clarity of the identification evidence.
