Coursey v. State, 196 Ga. App. 16-11-131 cannot also be used to punish a defendant as a repeat offender under O.C.G.A. Evidence supported the defendants' convictions of malice murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Because the evidence showed that the probationer had continuous access to the firearms in the house on the day of a fatal shooting, and that the probationer intended to, and did in fact exercise control over the sons' access to one of the guns in the minutes leading up to the shooting, the trial court properly found that the probationer had constructive possession of the firearm. 105, 650 S.E.2d 767 (2007). 3. 324, 316 S.E.2d 791, rev'd on other grounds, 253 Ga. 429, 322 S.E.2d 228 (1984), overruled in part by Ross v.

LEXIS 508 (Ga. 2008). King v. State, 169 Ga.

Testimony provided by two accomplices, together with inside information wherein defendant learned about the location of the robbery, the security camera on the premises, the people that worked there, how many people worked there, who was in the back area, and about the safe, when coupled with the fact that the gunman was not captured on the security camera, provided some evidence, though slight, that the robber had such inside information; under the circumstances, the accomplices' testimony was sufficiently corroborated, and the jury was authorized to find defendant guilty of armed robbery, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. 3, 635 S.E.2d 270 (2006). 735, 691 S.E.2d 626 (2010).

O.C.G.A. Despite the defendant's contrary contentions, evidence seized via the execution of a valid search warrant, specifically a substantial amount of methamphetamine, a set of scales in a case marked "dope kit inside," a .38 revolver, common tools of the drug trade, written instructions for making pure ephedrine, a loose bag of vitamin B-12 commonly used to dilute methamphetamine, over $2,000 in cash, and evidence that the defendant installed a video surveillance system to monitor the front door and driveway, both a trafficking in methamphetamine and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon conviction were supported by sufficient evidence. - When officers went to a defendant's residence to conduct a probation search based on a tip that the defendant was involved with drugs, as the defendant willingly led the officers to a concealed gun, and voluntarily furnished a urine sample that tested positive for methamphetamine, the defendant gave valid consent to the search, which eliminated the need for either probable cause or a search warrant under U.S. 17-10-7 were valid. Joiner v. State, 163 Ga. App. 16-5-2, felony murder predicated on possession of a firearm by a convicted felon in violation of O.C.G.A. 16-11-131. - In a case where the defendant shot and killed the victim during a robbery, trial counsel's performance was not deficient simply because counsel did not move to sever the firearm possession charge from the other counts of the indictment, since that charge was material to the more serious charges, including malice murder, and, thus, it was not incumbent upon the trial court to bifurcate the trial. - Because no exigency existed to justify a search after the defendant was handcuffed and placed under the watchful eye of a police officer, and even assuming that the defendant was under arrest while being detained in the kitchen, a search of the defendant's bedroom, which yielded a shotgun found under the bed in the bedroom, a box of unspent shotgun shells, and some loose unspent shotgun shells, was not one incident to an arrest; thus, the defendant's possession of a firearm while a convicted felon conviction was reversed, and the case was remanded for a new trial in which the illegally-obtained evidence could not be introduced.

Any error in the admission of a certified copy of a defendant's burglary conviction without redacting an attachment that set forth the evidence supporting the conviction was waived by the defendant as the defendant failed to object to the admission of the document at trial; however, the defendant was not unduly prejudiced by the admission of the document as the defendant did not offer to stipulate to the conviction and neither the conviction nor the facts surrounding the conviction were of a nature likely to inflame the passions of the jury. 7, 806 S.E.2d 302 (2017).

The evidence at trial on the malice murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime charges was sufficient and was incorporated by reference into the trial on the firearm count. - Because the only evidence before the jury regarding the defendant's status as a convicted felon was the entry of a guilty plea to a crime that could have been either a felony or a misdemeanor, the evidence failed to provide the jury with a sufficient basis for finding that element beyond a reasonable doubt; consequently, the defendant's conviction for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon had to be reversed.
