Session v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Derrick Session's convictions for failing to register as a sex offender based on a Louisiana conviction, rejecting his claims that Georgia's registry law violated his rights to travel, equal protection, and a state constitutional protection against social status legislation.
State v. Williams
The Supreme Court of Georgia sent a Telfair County murder case back to the trial court, ruling it used the wrong reasoning when it barred prosecutors from telling jurors about a prior domestic violence incident involving the defendant.
THANH TAN PHUNG v. ASHLEY HART
The Supreme Court of Georgia declined to review a Court of Appeals ruling that revived a pedestrian's personal injury lawsuit, even though a concurring Justice said the appellate court had likely misread key deposition testimony.
Brock v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a man's murder conviction in the beating death of Marlene Murray, ruling that any error in admitting testimony about a prior assault on his girlfriend was harmless given the strength of the other evidence against him.
Fuller v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Chatham County man's murder conviction, ruling that his trial lawyer's strategic choices about evidence and jury instructions did not amount to ineffective assistance.
Harris v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Camden County man's felony murder conviction, ruling the trial court properly denied him self-defense immunity and that admitting a single photo of the victim was not reversible error.
In the Matter of Claud L. McIver III
The Supreme Court of Georgia accepted a petition from attorney Claud L. McIver III to voluntarily surrender his law license, a move equivalent to disbarment, after his felony conviction for influencing a witness was upheld on appeal.
In the Matter of Jason Lee Van Dyke
The Supreme Court of Georgia imposed a three-year suspension on Texas lawyer Jason Lee Van Dyke for pleading no contest to filing a false police report, backdated so he is effectively reinstated immediately.
In the Matter of Natalie Spires Paine
The Supreme Court of Georgia cleared former Augusta prosecutor Natalie Spires Paine of ethics violations tied to recordings of privileged attorney-client meetings, siding with the special master over a disciplinary review board that had recommended a six-month suspension.
Martin v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Chatham County man's felony murder conviction, ruling that phone records, surveillance video, and physical evidence gave the jury enough to find him guilty as a party to the crime.
Priester v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Cobb County man's murder conviction for shooting a restaurant worker at a gas station, ruling that even if some prior-crime evidence was wrongly admitted, it did not affect the verdict given the strength of the other evidence.
Williams v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Coffee County man's malice murder conviction, rejecting his claim that video and witness evidence showed he acted in self-defense when he shot an unarmed-at-the-moment victim.
In the Matter of David John Pettinato
The Supreme Court of Georgia reinstated attorney David John Pettinato to practice law after finding he had met the conditions the court had previously set for his return to the bar.
In the Matter of Willie George Davis, Jr
The Supreme Court of Georgia ordered attorney Willie George Davis Jr. disbarred after finding he mishandled his sister's estate and his orphaned nephew's trust funds and repeatedly defied probate court orders.
Meadows v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a DeKalb County man's murder conviction, rejecting his claims about insufficient evidence and prosecutorial misconduct, but vacated a separate sentence the trial court wrongly imposed for aggravated assault.
Nundra v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Decatur County man's murder conviction, ruling that even if the trial judge made mistakes admitting evidence, the overwhelming proof of guilt made those mistakes harmless.
Taylor v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Malik Taylor's felony murder conviction for a fatal drive-by shooting, rejecting his claim that the trial judge's self-defense instruction wrongly suggested he had to prove he acted in self-defense.
Inquiry Concerning Judge Christian Coomer
The Supreme Court of Georgia sent a judicial discipline case against Court of Appeals Judge Christian Coomer back to the JQC Hearing Panel, ruling it used the wrong legal standards to recommend his removal.
Johnson v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia overruled its own longstanding rule that any court filing a defendant makes on his own while represented by a lawyer is automatically void, and gave trial courts discretion to accept such filings in narrow circumstances.
TAYLOR, EXR. v. THE DEVEREUX FOUNDATION, INC. (And Vice Versa)
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Georgia's $250,000 cap on punitive damages in a sexual assault case against a Georgia treatment facility, ruling the cap does not violate the right to a jury trial, separation of powers, or equal protection.
