Opinion

58823.

SUBMITTED OCTOBER 30, 1979.

DECIDED NOVEMBER 14, 1979.

Entering auto. Fulton Superior Court. Before Judge Tidwell.

Horton J. Greene, for appellant.

Lewis R. Slaton, District Attorney, Joseph J. Drolet, Michael Whaley, Assistant District Attorneys, for appellee.


The appellant was convicted of unlawfully entering an automobile and was sentenced to five years' imprisonment. On appeal, his sole contention is that the evidence did not authorize the verdict. Held:

We find the evidence sufficient to convince a rational trier of fact of the appellant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. See Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560) (1979). The judgment of conviction is accordingly affirmed.

Judgment affirmed. McMurray, P. J., and Underwood, J., concur.


SUBMITTED OCTOBER 30, 1979 — DECIDED NOVEMBER 14, 1979.
