Dawson v. Garner

Court of Appeals of Georgia

1Opinion of the Court

Jordan, Presiding Judge.

1. This case would have been another casualty of Hill v. Willis, 224 Ga. 263 (161 SE2d 281) as interpreted by this court in Crowley v. State, 118 Ga. App. 7 *470(162 SE2d 299) and Daniels v. State, 118 Ga. App. 111 (162 SE2d 764) as well as other cases, since the appeal is from the verdict and judgment and not from the order overruling the motion for new trial. However, the recent statement in Tiller v. State, 224 Ga. 645 (164 SE2d 137) saves the case since it comes under one of the situations requiring the court to take jurisdiction and decide the questions raised.
