SMITH v. HI-TECH PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.; And Vice Versa
The Supreme Court of Georgia denied further review in a dispute between Smith and Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals, but Justice Pinson wrote separately to question how much of the federal 'primary jurisdiction' doctrine truly belongs in Georgia law.
Whittaker v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Walker County man's murder conviction, finding the evidence of a brutal stabbing supported malice murder over voluntary manslaughter and that his trial lawyer's strategic choices were not ineffective.
Young v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Tomarkus Young's felony murder conviction in the shooting death of Richard Anderson, rejecting his claims about insufficient evidence, jury selection, and ineffective legal representation.
In the Matter of Andrew Matteson
The Supreme Court of Georgia accepted attorney Andrew Matteson's renewed petition for a six-month suspension, made retroactive to April 2019, after he provided proof of mental health treatment and that he repaid clients harmed by his misconduct.
In the Matter of Ramon David Sammons Jr
The Supreme Court of Georgia vacated a default judgment entered against an attorney facing disbarment, ruling he was not actually in default because he answered the complaint promptly after finally being personally served.
In the Matter of Susan Janette Lopez
The Supreme Court of Georgia accepted an attorney's request to give up her law license after she pleaded guilty to a felony stalking charge, a step the court treats the same as disbarment.
Inquiry Concerning Judge Christian Coomer
The Supreme Court of Georgia ordered the removal of Court of Appeals Judge Christian Coomer, finding he acted in bad faith by exploiting an elderly client and misusing campaign funds, undermining public confidence in judicial integrity.
Inquiry Concerning Judge Gerald Johnson
The Supreme Court of Georgia dismissed judicial discipline charges against a former Habersham County magistrate judge after he resigned, ruling it could not remove him from an office he no longer held.
In the Matter of Keith Chance Hardy
The Supreme Court of Georgia disbarred attorney Keith Chance Hardy after finding he stole client funds, abandoned three clients' cases, and never responded to the State Bar's investigation.
In THE INTEREST OF R. J. A., a Child
The Supreme Court of Georgia declined to review a Court of Appeals ruling on when a jailed juvenile counts as 'detained' for speedy-indictment purposes, but Justice Pinson wrote separately to question whether courts should look beyond published opinions to old case files to figure out what a prior ruling actually decided.
Allen v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Fayette County man's felony murder conviction, ruling that he was not entitled to pretrial immunity for self-defense and that the evidence supported the jury's rejection of his self-defense claim.
In the Matter of Richard H. Middleton, Jr
The Supreme Court of Georgia accepted a Savannah lawyer's request to give up his law license after he admitted improperly keeping a client's $100,000 settlement money in his trust account for personal use.
Middleton v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia sent a marijuana search case back to a Camden County trial court, ruling the judge never made clear whether an officer's years-old deputization as a sheriff's deputy covered this arrest.
Wood v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Bobby Wood Jr.'s felony murder conviction for shooting Aaron Skinner, ruling that any errors at trial were harmless because the evidence against his self-defense claim was strong.
CALDWELL, WARDEN v. EDENFIELD; And Vice Versa
The Supreme Court of Georgia reversed a habeas court ruling that had thrown out David Edenfield's death sentence for the murder of six-year-old Christopher Barrios, finding that new evidence about Edenfield's intellectual functioning would not have changed the jury's sentencing decision.
WELCH v. PAPPAS RESTAURANTS, INC. (Two Cases)
The Supreme Court of Georgia clarified that whether a crime on a business's property was reasonably foreseeable depends on the totality of the circumstances, not just proof of an identical past crime, and is usually a jury question.
Basulto v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Gwinnett County man's murder convictions for running down pedestrians with his truck, ruling the trial judge did not have to remove a juror who belatedly disclosed old arrests.
Blocker v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Fulton County man's murder and gang convictions in a shooting sparked by a stolen-money dispute, rejecting arguments about the evidence, a hearsay ruling, and his lawyer's trial strategy.
EFFICIENCY LODGE, INC. v. NEASON
The Supreme Court of Georgia vacated a ruling requiring an extended-stay motel to use court eviction proceedings against long-term residents, holding that lower courts used the wrong legal test to decide whether the residents were tenants or hotel guests.
Greene v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Douglas County man's malice murder conviction for strangling Sheila Bryant, rejecting challenges to his statements, autopsy photos, prior-acts evidence, and jury instructions, over a three-justice dissent.
