Hunt v. State, 102 Ga. 569 (Ga. 1897)
27 S.E. 670; 1897 Ga. LEXIS 588
Atkinson
Hunt v. State
Opinion of the Court
Where an attorney is appointed by the court to defend a person accused of a felony, the court should allow him a reasonable time for the preparation of the defense, and where a motion for such time is made and refused, and the case is close and doubtful on the facts, justice requires that a new trial should be granted.
Judgment reversed.
