Brundage v. State

1. The right of a thorough and sifting cross-examination is not to be abridged; and the testimony which was elicited upon cross-examination in the present case, even if objectionable upon the ground of irrelevancy, does not appear to have been prejudicial to the accused.

2. The defense of alibi was made only by the defendant’s statement, and it was not error for the judge to omit to charge thereon, in the absence' of a written request. Watson v. State, 136 Ga. 236 (71 S. E. 122).
