McGinnis v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
Marshall, Judge.
Appellant enumerates two errors, both deáling with the selection of the jury, in his appeal from a conviction of possessing and selling marijuana.
1. Appellant orally challenged the array of jurors (three panels consisting of 12 jurors on each panel) after discovering on voir dire of each panel that only one of the 36 jurors was under age 35. Appellant was age 25. Appellant contends in his first enumeration that because of the underrepresentation of his age group on each panel, they did not represent a fair cross section of the community.
