Senase v. State
Supreme Court of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
Bell, Justice.
After the appellant, Roger Fred Señase, was convicted and sentenced for trafficking in cocaine, OCGA § 16-13-31, he appealed to the Georgia Court of Appeals. The Court of Appeals transferred his appeal to this court, apparently 1 because his enumeration of errors included several constitutional challenges to § 16-13-31. However, our review of the record shows that Señase did not raise these constitutional issues in the trial court, and hence has forfeited the right to raise them on appeal. Arp v. State, 249 Ga. 403 (1) (291 SE2d 495) (1982).
