WILLIAMSON v. STATE

61026.

156 Ga. App. 856 (1980)

275 S.E.2d 60

WILLIAMSON v. THE STATE.

Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Decided December 5, 1980.

Rehearing Denied December 19, 1980.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jean E. Johnson, Jr., F. Gentry Shelnutt, Jr., for appellant.

Herbert Rivers, Solicitor, Robert Webb, Assistant Solicitor, for appellee.

SMITH, Judge.

Convicted of simple battery, Williamson appeals, enumerating as error that on three occasions during the course of the trial a juror was allowed by the court to examine witnesses. Since it has been unequivocally stated that in this state "a juror should not be permitted to examine witnesses under any circumstances," denial of appellant's motion for a new trial must be reversed.
