  2. Powell v. State

    154 Ga. App. 568 (Ga. Ct. App. 1980)   Cited 2 times
    Rejecting defendant’s claim that trial court erred in sufficiently charging jury on his defenses such as justification; although trial court did charge on justification, evidence did not show that defendant reasonably believed force was necessary to prevent death or great bodily injury to himself

    The defendant now insists that the trial court erred in failing to sufficiently charge the jury as to his defenses, such as justification (Code Ann. § 26-901 (Ga. L. 1968, pp. 1249, 1272)); mistake of fact (Code Ann. § 26-705 (Ga. L. 1968, pp. 1249, 1270; 1969, pp. 857, 859)); use of force in defense of property (Code Ann. § 26-904 (Ga. L. 1968, pp. 1249, 1273)); justification with reference to a lawful arrest (Code Ann. § 26-901, supra), and that it was the duty of the trial court to charge upon every material issue of fact in the case. Inasmuch as the trial court failed to sufficiently instruct upon the above, defendant insists that a new trial is required, citing Franklin v. State, 136 Ga. App. 47, 48 (2) ( 220 S.E.2d 60) and Moore v. State, 148 Ga. App. 469, 471 (2) ( 251 S.E.2d 376). We note that Division 2 of Moore v. State, 148 Ga. App. 469, 471 (2), supra, was reversed in State v. Moore, 243 Ga. 594 ( 255 S.E.2d 709).
