Supreme Court of Georgia
Coley v. the State.
April 15, 2019827 S.E.2d 241
Summary
The Court affirmed Coley's malice-murder conviction, holding that the evidence sufficiently corroborated his accomplice's testimony and supported the jury's verdict. The Court also held that Coley waived review of the mistrial issue by failing to move for a mistrial contemporaneously, waived any error concerning the alternate juror by agreeing to that juror's presence during deliberations, and failed to establish that the party-to-a-crime instruction or any asserted ineffective assistance warranted relief. No separate opinions were filed.
