Notes of Decisions

Language in indictment that defendant “did unlawfully and knowingly obtain food stamps in an amount she was not entitled to receive. . .”, generally comported with language of this section and was sufficient to advise defendant of charge. State v. Willy, 36 Or App 853, 585 P2d 762 (1978)
