Supreme Court of Georgia

Abbott v. State

May 17, 2021311 Ga. 478

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed Abbott's convictions for murder and related crimes. It held that the trial court did not plainly err by allowing McCleskey to testify after her blood-alcohol level returned to zero, did not abuse its discretion by admitting evidence of the four-wheeler theft as intrinsic evidence, and did not violate Brady because Abbott failed to establish that the State had an undisclosed agreement with Lehr.
