View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Because each of defendant's defective equipment convictions involved the proof of different facts, no error resulted in failing to merge them for sentencing purposes. Further, because defendant had yet to begin to serve his sentence, an subsequent increase in the same on one of the defective equipment charges was not erroneous.

COURT OF APPEALS OF GEORGIA, May 25, 2007, Decided

|||||
Overview: The fact that two small children were asleep while their mother was falsely imprisoned did not mean that they were not falsely imprisoned. Furthermore, the trial court did not err in refusing to answer whether a sleeping person could be falsely imprisoned; the jury could determine that if the mother was not free to leave, neither were the children.
