Baker v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia

Decided September 28, 1972No. 47518PublishedCited by 5 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

Hall, Presiding Judge.

Defendant appeals from two convictions for attempted burglary.

1. Defendant contends that the failure to give him a commitment hearing within 48 hours of his arrest makes null and void all that has transpired since. With no claim that an admission or confession was obtained by secret interrogation, the contention is without merit. Furman v. State, 225 Ga. 253 (167 SE2d 628).

2. The evidence supports the verdict.

3. The transcript completely refutes the defendant’s bare claim that the court failed to charge on circumstantial evidence.
