Horne v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia

1Opinion of the Court

Beasley, Judge.

Tried together, Erlando Vashawn Horne and Marshall E. Green were convicted of two counts of armed robbery (OCGA § 16-8-41). In their separate appeals from the denial of their motions for new trial, Horne and Green challenge the sufficiency of the evidence on grounds the testimony of two alleged accomplices was incredible and conflicting. This being a matter for the jury to decide, their argument fails. Horne also claims his counsel was ineffective. This enumeration fails because Horne provides no evidence or valid argument demonstrating any deficiency or prejudice.
