Morgan v. State, A07A0151., COURT OF APPEALS OF GEORGIA, May 8, 2007, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: With regard to defendant's conviction for cruelty to animals, an officer's initial plain view observations from a driveway and road did not authorize him to make a warrantless entry into defendant's backyard. Since consent was not given by defendant, the case required remand as the trial court never addressed whether exigent circumstances existed.

Northern v. State, A07A1142, COURT OF APPEALS OF GEORGIA, May 8, 2007, Decided

Overview: Sufficient evidence supported defendant's statutory rape and child molestation convictions, despite a challenge to the date-range period relating to the molestation offense. Further, defendant waived error as to the denial of a mistrial and an objection to a question demanding a legal conclusion from the victim was properly sustained.

Thomas v. State, A07A0606, COURT OF APPEALS OF GEORGIA, May 8, 2007, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Absent evidence of an immediate or future threat of violence against defendant, he was not entitled to a jury charge on coercion. Moreover, defendant's claims that his counsel forced him to testify, and yet, failed to adequately prepare him to do so, were refuted by counsel's contrary testimony, which the trial court was authorized to believe.

Wicker v. State, A07A0614, COURT OF APPEALS OF GEORGIA, May 8, 2007, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court did not err in denying defendant's request for an aggravated battery charge as a forcible felony in support of her justification claim, opting instead to charge on aggravated assault and rape, as she failed to demonstrate her reasonable belief that the use of force was necessary to prevent the commission of an aggravated battery.
