Brown v. State

1. There being in this State no practical distinction between principals in the first degree and principals in the second degree (August v. State, 11 Ga. App. 798, 76 S. E. 164; Maughon v. State, 9 Ga. App. 559, 71 S. E. 922), the court did not err in failing to instruct the jury upon the law in reference to the conviction of a principal in the second degree.

2. The alleged error in the charge of the court upon the law of murder is immaterial, since the defendant was convicted of the offense of voluntary manslaughter only. McDonald v. State, 23 Ga. App. 125 (97 S. E. 556).
