Minyard v. State
Georgia Court of Appeals
Minyard v. State, 18 Ga. App. 312 (1916)
89 S.E. 379; 1916 Ga. App. LEXIS 324
Wade
Minyard v. State
Opinion of the Court
Extraordinary motions for new trials are not favored, and should be denied where based upon alleged newly discovered evidence which is merely cumulative and impeaching in character. Due diligence on the part of the movhnt must also appear. Under the facts disclosed by the record in this case, we can not say that the trial judge abused the broad discretion vested in him by law in refusing this motion. Judgment affirmed.
