Glisson v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia

Decided January 21, 1987No. 73793PublishedCited by 4 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

Deen, Presiding Judge.

Nathan Glisson appeals from his convictions of child molestation and statutory rape contending that it was error for the trial court to permit the jury to convict him of both offenses as they constituted multiple prosecution for the same crime and that the court further erred in the charge on child molestation.

1. The appellant is correct in his assertion that it was error to convict him of child molestation and statutory rape for the same conduct. He may be prosecuted for both offenses, but he may not be convicted of both. Coker v. State, 164 Ga. App. 493 (297 SE2d 68)…
