Dixon v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia

Decided November 9, 2001No. A01A2130PublishedCited by 9 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

Mikell, Judge.

A jury convicted Willie Dixon of two violations of the Georgia Controlled Substances Act: sale of cocaine, OCGA § 16-13-30, and distribution of cocaine within 1,000 feet of a public housing project, OCGA § 16-13-32.5. The trial court denied his motion for new trial. Dixon appeals, contending that there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction, that the court erred in refusing to give a requested jury charge and in admitting an alleged statement by Dixon not disclosed prior to trial, and that the indictment was defective. We disagree and affirm the conviction.
