  1. McGarity v. State

    378 S.E.2d 179 (Ga. Ct. App. 1989)   Cited 7 times

    The record shows that when the State resumed its argument, the prosecutor did not attempt to "testify" but merely continued to explain the photograph of the scene, in light of the testimony previously given at trial, including that of the defendant. Lastly, although they are not allowed to interrogate witnesses directly, jurors do have a right to ask questions, and the trial court did not err by so stating. Pierce v. State, 158 Ga. App. 343 (1) ( 280 S.E.2d 381) (1981); Story v. State, 157 Ga. App. 490 ( 278 S.E.2d 97) (1981). In view of the circumstances here, and considering the innocuous nature of the questions posed, we find no reversible error.
