Supreme Court of Georgia

Burrell v. State

April 17, 2017

Summary

The court affirmed Burrell’s convictions and sentences, holding that the evidence was sufficient and that his ineffective-assistance claims failed because counsel was not deficient in the challenged respects. The court also declined to review an inadequately specified hearsay claim, rejected the unsupported Brady and Giglio claim, and held that the mistrial issue was unpreserved and meritless. No separate opinions were filed.
