Terrell v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
BLACKBURN, Senior Appellate Judge.
Following a jury trial, Nelson Terrell appeals his conviction of felony theft by shoplifting, 1 arguing that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm.
On appeal from a criminal conviction, the evidence must be viewed in the light most favorable to support the verdict, and the defendant no longer enjoys a presumption of innocence; moreover, an appellate court determines evidence sufficiency and does not weigh the evidence or determine witness credibility.
