Hughes v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
Barnes, Chief Judge.
A jury found David Hughes guilty of reckless driving and driving under the influence of drugs to the extent he was less safe to drive. Hughes appeals, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence. He also argues that the trial court erred in admitting hearsay testimony and in charging the jury. For reasons that follow, we affirm Hughes’ conviction for reckless driving, but reverse the DUI conviction.
1. In reviewing Hughes’ challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence, we construe the evidence favorably to the jury’s verdict. Graves v. State, 280 Ga. App. 420 (634 SE2d 186)…
