Opinion

26500.

SUBMITTED MAY 10, 1971.

DECIDED JUNE 2, 1971.

Habeas corpus. Tattnall Superior Court. Before Judge Caswell.

Winfred Furman Martin, pro se. Arthur K. Bolton, Attorney General, Harold N. Hill, Jr., Executive Assistant Attorney General, Courtney Wilder Stanton, Assistant Attorney General, David L. G. King, Jr., Deputy Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.


Since the petition for the writ of habeas corpus complains for the first time that the charge on alibi in the criminal trial deprived petitioner of due process of law, the appeal from the denial of the petition cannot be sustained. Shoemake v. Whitlock, 226 Ga. 771 ( 177 S.E.2d 677).

Judgment affirmed. All the Justice concur.

SUBMITTED MAY 10, 1971 — DECIDED JUNE 2, 1971.
