This document summarizes a court case involving Dr. Joel Mendez who was charged with failing to file income tax returns for the years 2001-2003. The Bureau of Internal Revenue alleged Mendez operated businesses without filing tax returns. The prosecution filed an amended information to include additional details about Mendez's businesses. The court granted the motion to amend, finding it was a formal amendment that did not change the offense charged. The court ruled the amendments would not prevent Mendez from using the same defenses, as he was already aware of the additional details from the investigation.
