Lewis v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia

1Opinion of the Court

JOHNSON, Presiding Judge.

A jury found Taurus Lewis guilty of aggravated assault, false imprisonment, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. He appeals from the convictions entered on the verdict and the denial of his motion for a new trial. On appeal, Lewis challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the verdict, the court’s refusal to give a charge on pointing a firearm as a lesser offense of aggravated assault, and the court’s determination that he received effective assistance of trial counsel. None of the assertions has merit, so we affirm the convictions.
