| Parties | L. C. DAVID v. The STATE |
| Court | Georgia Court of Appeals |
Guy B. Scott, Jr., Athens, for appellant.
Harry N. Gordon, Dist. Atty., B. Thomas Cook, Jr., Asst. Dist. Atty., Athens, for appellee.
In this appeal from the revocation of defendant's probation, the sole issue is whether the State produced legally sufficient evidence to authorize the court's finding that defendant violated a term of his probation.
The revocation petition alleged that defendant violated Georgia's public indecency statute by the lewd exposure of his sexual organs. (Code § 26-2011(b)). At the hearing, the prosecution's chief witness positively identified defendant as the person who followed her to a sorority house, unzipped his pants, and exposed his penis to her. This testimony was sufficient to satisfy the requirement of 'slight evidence' necessary to support a finding of a probationary violation. Dickerson v. State, 136 Ga.App. 885, 222 S.E.2d 649; Scott v. State, 131 Ga.App. 504, 206 S.E.2d 137.
Judgment affirmed.
