  • vacating the defendant’s conviction and sentence for trafficking cocaine when the trial court erroneously failed to merge that conviction with a related felony murder charge, even though the sentences for those convictions were to be served concurrently
  • “[D]irect evidence is not converted into circumstantial evidence by a witness’ lack of credibility.”
  • “[B]ecause the motion for new trial is pending, any notice of appeal to an appellate court has not yet ripened, and absent an applicable exception such as an interlocutory appeal as provided in OCGA § 5-6-34 (b), any appeal must be dismissed.”
