(2) The court, upon motion of the state and a finding of mistake, inadvertence, surprise, excusable neglect, the discovery of new evidence which by due diligence could not have been discovered at the time the hearing on probable cause was held, or any other reason justifying the relief, enters an order permitting the state to proceed against the defendant for the same offense.
