Supreme Court of Georgia
Session v. State
May 2, 2023316 Ga. 179
Summary
The court affirmed Session’s convictions for failing to register as a sex offender based on his Louisiana sexual-battery conviction. It held that Session failed to establish evidentiary insufficiency because he conceded the only developed sufficiency argument and improperly attempted to raise a different argument for the first time on appeal. The court also rejected his as-applied right-to-travel and equal-protection challenges as speculative and rejected his facial challenge under Georgia’s Social Status Provision because he did not show that any plausible interpretation of that provision invalidated the registry. No separate opinions were filed.
