HOLCOMB v. STATE

S95A0391.

265 Ga. 395 (1995)

HOLCOMB v. THE STATE.

Supreme Court of Georgia.

Decided May 8, 1995.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Adam & Talley, Jeffery C. Talley, for appellant.

Lydia J. Sartain, District Attorney, Gene Roberts, Denise M. Arenth, Assistant District Attorneys, for appellee.

FLETCHER, Justice.

Since this appeal relies on the same statistical evidence considered in Stephens, we affirm.
