Supreme Court of Georgia

Ivory v. State

August 12, 2025

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed Larry Ivory’s convictions arising from an armed robbery and murder. It held that the evidence was constitutionally sufficient, that the co-defendant’s statements to his girlfriend were non-testimonial and therefore outside the scope of Bruton, and that Ivory failed to show the severe prejudice required to establish an abuse of discretion in denying severance.
