Worthman v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
JOHNSON, Presiding Judge.
A jury found Gregory Worthman guilty of driving while under the influence of alcohol to the extent that he was a less safe driver. Worthman appeals, arguing the trial court erred in (1) admitting the results of his breath test, (2) allowing the state to mislead the jury in its opening statement, (3) permitting an officer to testify outside his area of expertise, and (4) presenting the jury instructions. Worthman also claims he was denied effective assistance of counsel. Because we find no error, we affirm Worthman’s conviction.
