Court of Appeals of Georgia

1Opinion of the Court

Barnes, Judge.

A jury convicted Michael Frazier of armed robbery, hijacking of a motor vehicle, and obstruction of a police officer, and the trial court sentenced him to 20 years in jail and 15 more on probation. He appeals, contending that the evidence was insufficient; that the trial court erred in sustaining the State’s hearsay objection during a defense witness’s testimony and allowing the State to ask questions about Frazier’s prior conviction; and that his trial counsel’s assistance was ineffective. For the reasons that follow, we affirm the convictions.
