Jennings v. State
| Decision Date | 30 July 1918 |
| Docket Number | 9647. |
| Parties | JENNINGS v. STATE. |
| Court | Georgia Court of Appeals |
Syllabus by the Court.
Under repeated rulings of the Supreme Court and of this court, a special ground of a motion for a new trial must be complete within itself. When, for a proper understanding of it, it is necessary to refer to another special ground of the motion, or to the record, it will not be considered. This ruling disposes of the special grounds of the motion for a new trial.
The verdict was authorized by the evidence.
Error from Superior Court, Fulton County; B. H. Hill, Judge.
Proceeding between the State and Wesley Jennings. A judgment adverse to Jennings was rendered, and he brings error. Affirmed.
Tillou Von Nunes, of Atlanta, for plaintiff in error.
John A. Boykin, Sol. Gen., and E. A. Stephens, both of Atlanta, for the State.
Judgment affirmed.
