How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- recognizing that the 2007 amendment of OCGA § 17-8-58, effective July 1, 2007, requires a criminal defendant to “inform the court of the specific objection and the grounds for such objection before the jury retires to deliberate”
- “For the admission of a co-defendant’s statements to constitute a Bruton violation the statements standing alone must clearly inculpate the defendant.”
- trial court did not err in denying motion for mistrial where there was no Bruton violation
- party to crime may be charged and convicted of its commission under OCGA § 16-2-20 (a)
- severance not mandated based on introduction of custodial statements made by a nontestifying co-defendant that did not directly inculpate the defendant
- defendant’s failure to object to charge on accomplice testimony at the conclusion of the jury charge resulted in waiver
