How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• “Having failed 10 To determine if Ward was twice put in jeopardy for the “same offenses,” we apply the “required evidence” or “same elements” test outlined in Blockburger v. United States, 284 U.S. 299 (52 SCt. 180, 76 LEd. 306) (1932
• “In a prosecution [for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon], proof of a prior felony is an absolute prerequisite to obtaining any conviction.”
• under Double Jeopardy Clause, remand for further proceedings is inappropriate if evidence is legally insufficient to support conviction
• “Because conviction of a prior felony was a necessary element of the crime of firearm possession as proscribed in OCGA § 16-11-131, we conclude that the insufficiency in the proof of this element demands entry of a judgment of acquittal as to that offense.”
