RAFFENSPERGER v. JACKSON (And Vice Versa)
The Supreme Court of Georgia struck down Georgia's Lactation Consultant Practice Act, ruling that limiting paid lactation care work to those with a private IBCLC certification violates the state constitution's due process protections for pursuing a lawful occupation.
SOUTHERN STATES CHEMICAL, INC. v. TAMPA TANK AND WELDING, INC
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled that a 2020 change to Georgia's construction statute of repose cannot be applied retroactively to revive Southern States Chemical's decade-old lawsuit over a leaky sulfuric acid tank, because the company that built the tank had a vested right to be free from the old claim.
Blalock v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Dwight Blalock Jr.'s murder conviction, rejecting his arguments that the trial judge should have delayed his trial and that a witness improperly commented on his silence.
Jones v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Bryan Jones's felony murder conviction, ruling that a mistaken jury instruction about prior bad acts was harmless and that his trial lawyer's strategic choices did not amount to ineffective assistance.
King v. King, Jr
The Supreme Court of Georgia answered a certified question from a federal appeals court, ruling that when someone in a confidential relationship with another person also owes them fiduciary duties, a dishonest failure to disclose can support a breach-of-fiduciary-duty lawsuit under Georgia law.
Moody v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Jeremy Moody's death sentences for the 2007 rape and murder of two teenage cousins in Fulton County, rejecting all 13 claims he raised, including that his guilty plea was coerced.
O'neal v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Ryan O'Neal's murder conviction for the shooting of Joseph Jackson during a drug deal turned robbery, rejecting his claims about insufficient evidence, jury instructions, and his lawyer's performance.
Smith, Warden v. Chandler
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a grant of habeas corpus relief to a man convicted of child molestation, ruling his trial lawyer should have used the victim's own inconsistent hospital statements to challenge her credibility and his appellate lawyer should have raised that failure.
State v. Britton
The Supreme Court of Georgia reversed a trial court order that had thrown out cell phone location evidence in a Fulton County murder case, ruling the search warrant affidavit was neither false nor invalid.
State v. HARRIS (Two Cases)
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled it had jurisdiction to hear the State's appeal in a Fulton County murder case despite the lack of written trial court orders, and sent the case back because the trial judge used the wrong legal tests to exclude key evidence.
WARD v. THE STATE (Two Cases)
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld the murder and aggravated assault convictions of two men who took part in a fatal prison stabbing, rejecting challenges to the evidence, courtroom security, witness restraints, and a prosecutor's private talk with a witness.
Ward, Comr. v. Medina
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a ruling that a Wheeler County man's guilty plea to armed robbery and aggravated assault was involuntary, because he was told he faced far more prison time than the law actually allowed and was hinted that a trial would go worse for him.
Williams v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Fulton County man's murder conviction, rejecting claims that the trial court mishandled evidence rulings and that his trial lawyer was constitutionally ineffective.

Boles v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a father's felony murder conviction for the death of his three-year-old daughter, finding the evidence sufficient and rejecting his argument that jailhouse interviews with child welfare workers required Miranda warnings.
Ingram v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Tyree Ingram's murder conviction in a Milledgeville drug deal shooting, ruling that even where trial counsel made mistakes, the evidence of guilt was too strong for those mistakes to have changed the outcome.
McCalop v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a DeKalb County woman's murder conviction in the stabbing death of her boyfriend, rejecting challenges to expert testimony about battered person syndrome and a ruling that a defense witness opened the door to bad-character evidence.
