1Opinion of the Court
PAUL A. BONIN, Judge.
|2The district attorney appeals the trial court’s sustaining of the defendant’s motion to quash. Nicholas Luther, the defendant, moved to quash the second bill of information filed against him on the grounds that the district attorney had exceeded his authority to dismiss the first bill of information and re-institute prosecution in this case. Along with a number of other cases pending before him, and after receiving only limited oral argument and no evidence, the trial judge sustained Mr. Luther’s motion. The prosecution appealed. See La. C. Cr. P. art. 912 B(l).
