What is the statutory ground for a motion to set aside an indictment?

A statutory ground for setting aside an indictment is where it was not properly "found, endorsed, and presented." ( 995, subd. (a)(1)(A).) We have noted that a statutory motion to set aside an indictment does not contemplate the introduction of evidence outside the record of the proceedings before the grand jury. (People v. Sherwin (2000) 82 Cal.App.4th 1404, 1411.) The People, however, do not dispute that this ground is cognizable through the vehicle of a nonstatutory motion to set aside as well.¹⁶
