144 Ga. App. 650 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1978
Clark was convicted on each count of an indictment charging one count each of keeping a place of prostitution and pimping, and two counts of pandering. He contends on appeal that the trial judge erred in refusing to disqualify himself, that the jury charge was erroneous in several respects, that his character was erroneously introduced into evidence, and that, for the above reasons, a new trial should have been granted. Finding merit in none of these enumerations we affirm the judgment.
1. Clark’s trial counsel voluntarily withdrew his motion to disqualify the trial judge, so there can be no merit in an appellate contention that the judge’s failure to disqualify himself was error.
2. The various enumerations directed toward the charge are without merit. The transcript shows that the charge was accurate, complete,-and fairly adjusted to the evidence in this case.
3. Clark’s character was not erroneously placed in issue. The indictment in this case arose out of an incident in which Clark allegedly provided GBI undercover agents
4. Since we find no merit in the enumerations discussed above, we accordingly conclude that the trial court correctly denied Clark’s motion for a new trial.
Judgment affirmed.
