Truitt v. State
Georgia Court of Appeals · Decided July 13, 1926 · Lube
35 Ga. App. 564; 134 S.E. 204; 1926 Ga. App. LEXIS 981

Truitt v. State

Opinion of the Court

Lube, J.

The evidence for the State (no evidence being presented by the

accused) made a positive case against the defendant, and the jury could not have done other than convict him. The special assignment of error that the court did not charge upon the law of confessions is wholly without merit. See, in this connection, Story v. State, 145 Ga. 43 (2) (88 S. E. 548). The court properly overruled the motion for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, G. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur.
