Neverson v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
McMlLLIAN, Judge.
Valerina Neverson was convicted by a jury of voluntary manslaughter as a lesser included offense of malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault and possession of a knife during the commission of a crime.1 She appeals following the denial of her motion for new trial, arguing that the evidence did not support her conviction, that the trial court erred by failing to charge the jury on the defense of habitation, and that her trial counsel was ineffective for failing to object to the court’s instructions. Having considered Neverson’s claims of error, we now affirm.
