Opinion

69552.

DECIDED SEPTEMBER 6, 1985.

Attempted robbery. Lowndes Superior Court. Before Judge Horkan.

James W. Hall, Jr., for appellant.

H. Lamar Cole, District Attorney, Fred R. Simpson, Assistant. District Attorney, for appellee.


In McKinney v. State, 254 Ga. 503 ( 330 S.E.2d 804) (1985), the Supreme Court reversed the decision of this court on the ground that when a defendant in a felony case had used all of his peremptory strikes before a jury was selected and was forced to use a strike on a juror who on objection should have been stricken for cause, the error is harmful and requires reversal. Hence, our decision in McKinney v. State, 174 Ga. App. 78 ( 329 S.E.2d 258) (1985), is vacated and the judgment of the trial court is reversed.

Judgment reversed. Deen, P. J., and McMurray, P. J., concur.

DECIDED SEPTEMBER 6, 1985.
