View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court erred in allowing an officer to identify defendant in two surveillance photographs, based on the officer's familiarity with defendant's appearance and absent a change in the same, as such invaded the province of the jury by tending to establish a fact which average jurors could decide on their own by drawing their own conclusions.

Read v. Ga. Power Co., A06A2098., COURT OF APPEALS OF GEORGIA, February 6, 2007, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Because it was clear that a lessor conveyed no ownership interest to a tenant, leaving that tenant with only a right to possess and use the leased property, the tenant did not own an interest in said property, and thus, could not pursue an easement by necessity under O.C.G.A. § 44-9-40. Hence, summary judgment in the lessor's favor was proper.

Hence, in addition, the officer had sufficient and particular facts to investigate the men for driving under influence.
