GRANT v. STATE

No. A02A1237.

570 S.E.2d 597 (2002)

257 Ga. App. 275

GRANT v. The STATE.

Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Reconsideration Denied September 5, 2002.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Rodney A. Williams, Smyrna, for appellant.

Gwendolyn R. Keyes, Solicitor-General, Rupal D. Vaishnav, Asst. Solicitor-General, for appellee.

JOHNSON, Presiding Judge.

A jury found Harvey Grant guilty of simple battery. He appeals, alleging the trial court improperly limited his closing argument, the state improperly placed the burden of persuasion on him, and the trial court erred in denying his request for mistrial after the state questioned him about prior arrests. Because each of these enumerations of error lacks merit, we affirm Grant's conviction.
