Griffin v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
Accusation of cheating and swindling, from city court of Fayetteville — Judge Hollingsworth. November 20, 1907.
1Opinion of the CourtHill, C. J.
1. An accusation in a city court can be legally based upon an affidavit made before a magistrate for the purpose of procuring a warrant for the arrest of the accused. This would be a sufficient compliance with an act creating a city eoprt, which requires that defendants in criminal cases in that court shall be tried on “a written accusation, *477setting forth plainly the offense, charged, founded upon the affidavit of the prosecutor,” Wright v. Davis, 120 Ga. 676 (48 S. E. 170).
