Mallard v. State

Supreme Court of Georgia

220 Ga. 31 (Ga. 1964)

Opinion

22459.

ARGUED APRIL 14, 1964.

DECIDED MAY 7, 1964.

Driving while under influence of intoxicants; constitutional question. Oglethorpe City Court. Before Judge Averill.

Carl P. Savage, Jr., for plaintiff in error.


The sole assignment of error is that the court erred in overruling the defendant's special plea in bar. In the material portions of the plea it is alleged that "Georgia Code Section 68-1625" is unconstitutional because it violates numerated provisions of the Georgia Constitution and the United States Constitution. Held:

This attempt to attack the constitutionality of Code § 68-1625 is futile since there is no such section in the official Code of 1933. Accordingly the court did not err in overruling the special plea in bar. See Bowen v. State, 215 Ga. 471 ( 111 S.E.2d 44); Morgan v. Todd, 214 Ga. 497 ( 106 S.E.2d 37).

Judgment affirmed. All the Justices concur.

ARGUED APRIL 14, 1964 — DECIDED MAY 7, 1964.
