White v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia

1Opinion of the CourtHill, C. J.
1. A judgment overruling a demurrer to an indictment can not be made a ground for a new trial. Such a judgment must be excepted to directly, either pendente lite or in the bill of exceptions. Sconyers v. State, 6 Ga. App. 804 (65 S. E. 814).
2.

Cooper v. State, 69 Ga. 761.
3. No error…
