§  180.40  Proceedings  upon  felony  complaint; application in superior               court following hearing or waiver of hearing.    Where the local criminal court has held a defendant for the action  of  a  grand jury, the district attorney may, at any time before such matter  is submitted to the grand jury, apply,  ex  parte,  to  the  appropriate  superior  court  for  an  order  directing that the felony complaint and  other papers transmitted to such court pursuant to  subdivision  one  of  section   180.30   be   returned   to   the  local  criminal  court  for  reconsideration of the action to be taken.  The superior court may issue  such an order if it is satisfied that the felony complaint is  defective  or that such action is required in the interest of justice.
