The STATE v. SASS GROUP, LLC (Two Cases)
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled that a lawsuit against the State seeking declaratory relief under a new constitutional waiver of sovereign immunity must be dismissed entirely if it also names another defendant, like a prosecutor sued individually.
Williams v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Toombs County man's murder conviction for the shooting death of a coworker, rejecting his claims that the evidence was too weak and that jurors should have been told about a coercion defense.
Allaben v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a DeKalb County man's third murder conviction for strangling his wife, finding the evidence supported malice murder and that the crime was properly tried in DeKalb County.
Behl v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Chatham County man's felony murder conviction, ruling that the trial judge was not obviously wrong to skip a voluntary manslaughter instruction and that his discovery access complaint was never properly raised.
Hood v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Decatur County man's guilty plea to malice murder despite his claim his lawyer misled him about parole eligibility, but corrected two sentencing errors and sent the case back for resentencing.
In the Matter of Dana Nicole Jackson
The Supreme Court of Georgia disbarred an attorney who collected debt payments for clients but never turned the money over to them or responded to their requests for updates.
In the Matter of David John Pettinato
The Supreme Court of Georgia imposed a ten-day suspension on attorney David John Pettinato, matching discipline he already received in Florida for misrepresenting an appraiser's independence and for failing to promptly correct false deposition testimony.
In the Matter of L. Nicole Hamilton
The Supreme Court of Georgia imposed a six-month suspension on attorney L. Nicole Hamilton for failing to promptly refund an unearned legal fee and delaying payment of a fee arbitration award to a former client.
In the Matter of Nathan E. Hardwick IV
The Supreme Court of Georgia accepted the voluntary surrender of law license from attorney Nathan E. Hardwick IV after his federal fraud convictions were upheld on appeal, permanently ending his ability to practice law in the state.
Monroe v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Steven Monroe's murder and gang-related convictions from a fatal 2014 nightclub shooting in Homerville, but found sentencing mistakes on several counts and sent the case back for corrected sentences.
Bowman v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled that a Paulding County man's 2014 trial never happened in the eyes of the law because the 12 citizens who heard his case were never sworn in as a jury, so he is entitled to be discharged and acquitted under Georgia's speedy trial statute.
Charles v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed a Gordon County man's murder conviction, rejecting his challenges to the evidence, the trial court's handling of a courtroom bathroom incident involving jurors, and the decision to try felon-in-possession charges together with the murder charges.
Evans v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a man's murder conviction for a fatal shooting outside an Augusta apartment, ruling his trial lawyer's decision not to use police body-camera footage was a reasonable strategic choice, not ineffective representation.
Gonzales v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a man's felony murder and aggravated battery convictions in the death of his girlfriend's three-year-old son, but ruled his separate aggravated battery sentence should have merged into the murder sentence.
Haufler v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed Chad Haufler's murder conviction, rejecting his claims that the jury should have been instructed on involuntary manslaughter and that his statements to a deputy coroner should have been suppressed.
In the Matter of Gus Vincent Soto
The Supreme Court of Georgia disbarred a lawyer after Florida permanently revoked his law license for mishandling client settlement funds in a scheme similar to a Ponzi scheme.
In the Matter of Kara Sherrisse Lawrence
The Supreme Court of Georgia disbarred attorney Kara Sherrisse Lawrence after she abandoned an immigration client, took over $5,300 from him without proper authorization, and never responded to State Bar disciplinary proceedings.
Middlebrooks v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld the murder conviction of a mother who killed her two-year-old daughter, ruling that a prosecution expert's improper testimony about insanity-verdict consequences and defense counsel's handling of a VA psychiatrist's testimony did not warrant a new trial.
Norris v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a man's murder and child cruelty convictions in the beating death of an eight-month-old, rejecting arguments about insufficient evidence and ineffective legal representation.
State v. Wilson
The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed a trial court's decision to throw out evidence from a murder suspect's cell phones, ruling the search warrant let police grab 'any and all' data without limiting the search to evidence of the crime.
