Seibert v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia

Decided March 8, 2013No. A12A2491PublishedCited by 4 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

McFadden, Judge.

Steven Seibert appeals his conviction of aggravated stalking. He argues that the evidence does not support the conviction. We agree and therefore reverse.

On appeal from a criminal conviction,

the evidence must be viewed in the light most favorable to the verdict, and the defendant no longer enjoys the presumption of innocence; moreover, an appellate court does not weigh the evidence or determine witness credibility but only determines whether the evidence is sufficient under the standard of Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U. S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560) (1979).
