Buchalla v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled that a man convicted of aggravated assault in 2013 can still be prosecuted for murder after his victim died in 2015, because the murder charge did not exist at the time of his earlier conviction.
CAYAMCELA v. ADVOCACY TRUST, LLC (Two Cases)
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a $42 million wrongful death verdict against a doctor and a medical staffing agency in the death of Holly Baumstark, rejecting challenges to evidence rulings, jury instructions, and attorney fees, and ruled the state's damages cap could not limit the award.
CLARK v. LEIGH (And Vice Versa)
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled that a Bibb County jury's wrongful death and pain-and-suffering award for April Clark cannot be cut down by Georgia's $350,000 cap on noneconomic medical malpractice damages, because that cap cannot be separated from damages the jury trial right protects. The court sent the case back for further proceedings.
Calhoun v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld James Calhoun's malice murder conviction for the shooting of Pamela Williams, rejecting his claims about trial evidence, jury procedures, and his lawyer's performance, largely because he failed to back up many of his arguments.
Denson v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Fulton County man's felony murder conviction for shooting a friend through a locked front door, rejecting claims of ineffective counsel and sentencing error.
Floyd v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled that a Newton County man convicted of shooting a man he claimed threatened him can be reindicted and retried on felony murder and firearm charges after his earlier convictions were thrown out for his lawyer's mistakes.
Glenn v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Aqontise Glenn's malice murder conviction in a DeKalb County drive-by shooting, finding the circumstantial evidence sufficient and ruling the trial court properly excluded hearsay testimony about a possible alternate suspect.
In the Matter of Andrew Thurston Murphy
The Supreme Court of Georgia disbarred an attorney who pleaded guilty to 17 felony counts for sending threatening emails to a judge, prosecutors, and court staff during a client's criminal case.
In the Matter of Lisa Paige Lenn
The Supreme Court of Georgia accepted an attorney's request to voluntarily surrender her law license after she pleaded guilty to a felony charge of terroristic threats, a move the court treats as equivalent to disbarment.
In the Matter of Mylee McKinney
The Supreme Court of Georgia disbarred attorney Mylee McKinney after she abandoned four clients, fabricated a court filing, and defaulted on the State Bar's disciplinary complaints against her.
In the Matter of Samuel David Ozburn
The Supreme Court of Georgia accepted an attorney's request to give up his law license after he admitted mishandling client matters, including falsely claiming he had secured title insurance in 16 real estate closings.
McCoy v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Bartow County woman's felony murder conviction for shooting her ex-husband, ruling that the trial court was allowed to reject her pretrial claim that she was immune from prosecution under Georgia's self-defense immunity law.
McDaniel v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld Darrian McDaniel's murder conviction, ruling that his statements during a police interview did not clearly invoke his right to remain silent or his right to a lawyer, and that playing only part of a recorded interview for the jury was not plain error.
Piercefield v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Cobb County man's murder convictions, rejecting his claims that a juror should have been removed, that his lawyer was ineffective, and that the evidence supported self-defense over guilt.
Price v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia vacated part of the ruling against a Fulton County man convicted of murder, finding the trial judge made legal errors in rejecting his claim that he was denied a speedy trial, and sent the case back for a proper analysis.
Rease v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a Fayette County man's felony murder conviction in the strangulation death of his neighbor, rejecting claims about excluded evidence, DNA testimony, judicial comments, and his lawyer's performance.
State v. Brantley
The Supreme Court of Georgia ruled that evidence of a sexual assault Barron Brantley allegedly committed against Alexis Crawford five days before her murder can be used at his murder trial, reversing a Fulton County judge's ruling that kept it out.
Almond v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a DeKalb County man's murder conviction for shooting his grandfather, ruling that shackling him during trial, though concerning, did not require a new trial because the jury never saw it.
Anderson v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a DeKalb County man's murder conviction, ruling his trial lawyer's failure to object to two jury instructions did not amount to ineffective assistance of counsel.
Burden v. State
The Supreme Court of Georgia upheld a DeKalb County man's murder convictions, ruling that the trial judge was allowed to tell the jury about his later Clayton County convictions for a similar armed burglary and shooting.
