| Shelton v. State, S07A0008.,
SUPREME COURT OF GEORGIA, February 26, 2007, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: When a witness had originally given a statement that supported defendant's self-defense claim, but later recanted this statement, defense counsel was not ineffective for calling the witness. Defendant had insisted that the witness be called, and doing so at least allowed the jury to hear the witness's original statement.

|||||
Overview: Given all the relevant facts and circumstances regarding the parties' marriage, the trial court did not err in entering a generic final judgment severing the marital bond, allowing the parties' ownership interests in any marital property to remain as they were before the decree was entered, and denying them both alimony and attorney's fees.

Overview: Because the State did not have right to appeal under O.C.G.A. § 5-7-1(a)(5) or under any other provision of § 5-7-1, its appeal from an order barring defendant's trial on speedy trial grounds was properly dismissed.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Defendant's convictions of malice murder, armed robbery, and possession of a firearm were supported by the evidence, which included use of the murder weapon during a later robbery by defendant's accomplices, a video that provided a corroborating account of the shooting, and defendant's spontaneous inculpatory statements.

SUPREME COURT OF GEORGIA, February 26, 2007, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: With regard to defendant's conviction for the malice murder of her husband, the trial court properly admitted evidence of the death of a boyfriend as a similar transaction since the evidence showed a common scheme and method of murdering both men, namely poisoning them with antifreeze placed in green Jell-O.

| Yancey v. State, S07A0108.,
SUPREME COURT OF GEORGIA, February 26, 2007, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: There was sufficient evidence to support defendant's convictions of felony murder and aggravated assault. There was evidence that defendant was the driver of the van from which shots were fired at the victims; even if he might not have actually fired the gun, he could be guilty as a party to the crimes under O.C.G.A. § 16-2-20(a).
