Shute v. State

36 Ga. 87 | Ga. | 1867

Harris, J.

The sole question on this record is whether, by the creation of the County Courts, an exclusive jurisdiction was not conferred on them for the trial of minor offences, as simple larcenies, etc., etc. A careful examination satisfies us that exclusive jurisdiction for the trial of such minor offences was not conferred on the County Courts, but that by the Constitution of the State, eonaurrmt jurisdiction remains in the Superior Courts.

Judgment affirmed.
