Supreme Court of Georgia

Decided February 13, 1941No. 13465PublishedCited by 15 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

Bell, Justice.

1. The statement by the defendant’s attorney in reference to testimony given by a witness for the State, “I don’t see the relevancy of that.” did not amount to an objection; nor did the question, “Does my brother intend to go into character?” referring to other testimony.

(а) The statement, “We object,” was insufficient as an objection to evidence, no specific ground of objection being urged.

(б) In connection with the foregoing, see Chambers v. Walker, 80 Ga. 642 (9, 10) (6 S. E. 165); Edenfield v. Brinson, 149 Ga. 377 (4) (100 S. E. 373); Annunciatio v. State, 176 Ga. 787 (5)…
