349 S.E.2d 29 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1986
Appellant was convicted of theft by taking and appeals.
1. Appellant contends error in denial of his motion for a new trial, which was based on the general grounds. The evidence disclosed that Richard Sanders of the Spalding County Sheriffs Office was working at the site of a truck accident in the middle of the night. Several patrol cars with blue lights flashing were at the scene when
The weight of the evidence and credibility of witnesses are questions for the jury. Bryant v. State, 174 Ga. App. 468 (1) (330 SE2d 406) (1985). We find the evidence sufficient to meet the standard of proof required by Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U. S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560). Hence, it was not error to deny appellant’s motion for a new trial.
2. Appellant contends the trial court erred by failing to charge on circumstantial evidence. Appellant made no request for such a charge and when the court asked if appellant had any exceptions to the charge, he stated that he had none. Further, he did not reserve his right to make exceptions to the charge. Thus, this asserted error was waived. Awtrey v. State, 175 Ga. App. 148, 152 (5) (332 SE2d 896) (1985).
Judgment affirmed.
