How courts have described this case

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

• explaining that “a premature notice of appeal is treated as effectively filed upon entry of the order denying the motion for new trial”
• noting that OCGA § 24-9-923 is the current codification of the provisions of former OCGA § 24-4-48, which “were carried forward into the new Evidence Code”
• finding trial counsel’s decision to not call expert witness because the testimony would have been perceived as an unnecessary attack on the victim was not unreasonable and, thus, did not support ineffective assistance claim
