Supreme Court of Iowa.

Rehearing Denied January 24, 1991.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Thomas J. Miller, Atty. Gen., Bruce Kempkes, Asst. Atty. Gen., and Dale Putnam, County Atty., for plaintiff.

Judith O'Donohoe of Eggert, Erb, Ott, O'Donohoe & Frye, Charles City, for defendant.

Considered by HARRIS, P.J., and SCHULTZ, LAVORATO, NEUMAN, and SNELL, JJ.

SNELL, Justice.

Plaintiff, State of Iowa, brought this original certiorari action to challenge the district court's determination that a county jail does not constitute a "detention facility" within the meaning of Iowa Code section 719.8 (1989). The State also challenges the district court's action in accepting, despite the objection of the prosecutor, a plea of guilty to a charge not set forth in the trial information. We sustain the writ.
