Parrish v. State
Georgia Court of Appeals
Parrish v. State, 186 S.E.2d 541 (1971)
125 Ga. App. 97; 1971 Ga. App. LEXIS 746
Quillian, Jordan, Evans
Parrish v. State
Opinion
The appellant was convicted of burglary. He filed an appeal and the case is here for review. Held:
1. The appellant contends it was error to fail to grant his motion for a continuance on the ground of the absence of a material witness. The record shows: that the appellant was represented by counsel for several weeks prior to trial; that the appellant failed to inform his counsel that the presence of the witness was necessary and material to his defense; that no subpoena was issued for the witness by the appellant or his attorney. The denial of the motion for a continuance was not error. Code § 27-415; Coker v. State, 87 Ga. App. 411 (1) (74 SE2d 12).
2. The remaining enumerations of error are without merit.
Judgment affirmed.
