KING v. THE STATE.

Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Decided April 8, 1955.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Murphy & Murphy, Thomas B. Murphy, for plaintiff in error.

Robert J. Noland, Solicitor-General, W. L. Denton, Solicitor-General, contra.


GARDNER, P. J.

1. It is our opinion that the jury, under the evidence, would have been authorized to convict the defendant of murder. We mention this evidence regarding murder for the reason that, among the special grounds, counsel for the defendant assigns error because the court charged the law with reference to murder. The evidence, as set forth above, amply authorized the jury to return a verdict for voluntary manslaughter.
