KENNESTONE HOSPITAL, INC. v. EMORY UNIVERSITY
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled that a certificate of need to operate a general acute care hospital is a private right, not a public one, because it lets an individual owner use property in a specific way.
Lee v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed David Wallace Lee's malice murder convictions for killing his ex-girlfriend Meghan Bowen and James Harden, rejecting challenges to the evidence, trial rulings, and his trial lawyer's performance.

ANDREANA WILLIAMS, CONSERVATOR v. REGENCY HOSPITAL COMPANY, LLC
The Supreme Court of Georgia transferred a medical malpractice appeal to the Court of Appeals, ruling that the trial court never clearly decided the constitutional question the appellant wanted reviewed, so the high court lacked jurisdiction to keep the case.
Adams v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Fulton County man's murder conviction for a fatal drive-by shooting, rejecting his claims that the evidence was too weak, that evidence found in his home should have been suppressed, and that his lawyer had a conflict of interest from representing him and his brother together.
