Supreme Court of Georgia

Thomas v. State

May 29, 2024319 Ga. 123

Summary

The Court held that a trial court may reconsider an interlocutory suppression ruling entered in an earlier term after a new trial has been granted because the new trial vacates the prior final judgment. The Court distinguished cases applying the end-of-term rule where no new trial had been granted and affirmed the order allowing the cell-site location information to be admitted.
