Plain-English Summary
Section 25-21,124 closes the batch by describing what the quo warranto information itself has to look like. It does not demand elaborate pleading; the information has to consist of a plain statement of the facts that constitute the grounds of the proceeding, addressed to the court hearing the case.
That plain statement carries the same procedural weight as any other opening pleading. The section says it shall stand for an original complaint, tying the quo warranto information into the ordinary framework of pleadings and responses rather than treating it as some free-standing, unfamiliar document.
