Baker v. State

Baker v. State
Georgia Court of Appeals · Decided January 12, 1937 · Broyles
55 Ga. App. 159; 189 S.E. 364; 1937 Ga. App. LEXIS 17

Baker v. State

Opinion of the Court

Broyles, C. J.

1. “Evidence as to the venue, though slight, is sufficient where there is no conflicting evidence. Johnson v. State, 62 Ga. 300, 301; Porter v. State, 76 Ga. 658 (2), 660.” Towler v. State, 24 Ga. App. 167 (3) (100 S. E. 42). Under the foregoing ruling, the evidence in the instant case sufficiently established the venue.

2. The verdict was authorized by the evidence, and the refusal to grant a new trial was not error.

Judgment affirmed.

MacIntyre and Guerry, JJ., concur.
