Georgia Court of Appeals, 1930

Johnson v. State

Georgia Court of Appeals · Decided April 16, 1930 · Bloodworth

41 Ga. App. 370; 153 S.E. 207; 1930 Ga. App. LEXIS 597

Opinion of the Court

Bloodworth, J.

1. In each of the two special grounds of the motion for a new trial it is alleged that an excerpt from the charge was “erroneous and injurious to him [the defendant], and was contrary to law and misleading, because in such charge (a) the court charged on an issue not *371sustained by proof; (6) the court charged on a contention or theory not sustained by the evidence.” Both grounds are without merit, as the evidence authorized the charge given.

Decided April 16, 1930. James N. Bahai, O’Neal & O’Neal, for plaintiff in error. Walter O. Hartridge, solicitor-general, Julian Hartridge, contra.

2. There is ample evidence to support the verdict.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, O. J., and Luhe, J., eoneur.
