How courts have described this case

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

• holding that the trial court erred in denying the defendant’s motion for directed verdict when no exception to the statute of limitation was alleged in the indictment
• holding that, because “no exception was alleged in the indictment, the State was incapable of proving an exception to toll the applicable four-year statute of limitation, as such proof was inadmissible”
• defendant entitled to directed verdict of acquittal because indictment did not allege exception to statute of limitations and thus proof of exception is inadmissible at trial
• defendant entitled to directed verdict of acquittal because indictment did not allege exception to statute of limitations and thus proof of exception is inadmissible at trial
• exception to statute of limitation must be alleged in indictment and proved by State
• trial court did not err in directing a verdict of acquittal when State failed to initiate prosecution within the four years provided by OCGA § 17-3-1 (c) and when the indictment failed to allege the seven-year exception in the same statute
