Patterson v. State

Opinion of the Court

Bloodwortii, J.

The judge did not err in charging on voluntary manslaughter or in failing to charge on involuntary manslaughter; the requests to charge, as far as legal and pertinent, were covered by the charge given; there is evidence to support the verdict, and it having been approved by the trial judge, this court will not set it aside.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, O. J., and Luke, J., concur.
