Gilbert v. State

Supreme Court of Georgia

Decided September 7, 1944No. 14930PublishedCited by 2 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

The only error assigned is the judgment overruling the motion for a new trial. The motion being based on the general grounds only, and an examination of the record disclosing that the evidence supports the verdict, and that the verdict has received the approval of the trial judge, the judgment refusing a new trial will not be disturbed. McPhail v. State, 116 Ga. 599 (42 S.E. 1001); Bird v. State, 150 Ga. 749 (105 S.E. 298); Stafford v. State, 176 Ga. 845 (169 S.E. 110); Collins v. State, 193 Ga. 177 (17 S.E.2d 725).

Judgment affirmed. All the Justices concur.
