STATE v. JACKSON

No. S14A0890.

764 S.E.2d 395 (2014)

The STATE v. JACKSON.

Supreme Court of Georgia.

October 6, 2014.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Paige Reese Whitaker, Paul L. Howard Jr., D.A., Atlanta, for appellant.

Alixe Elisabeth Steinmetz, Office of the Public Defender, Atlanta, for appellee.

BENHAM, Justice.

This is the second appearance of this case before this Court. A jury convicted Marcus Jackson on murder and related charges, after which the trial court granted defendant's motion for new trial. This Court reversed, noting that the order granting new trial was entered solely on the ground of the legal insufficiency of the evidence, and not pursuant to OCGA § 5-5-21 with the trial court acting as the "thirteenth juror."1
