63619, 63620.
    STATE v. EDWARDS (two cases).
    Decided April 16, 1982.
    
      Beverly B. Hayes, District Attorney, H. Jeff Lanier, Assistant District Attorney, for appellant.
    
      W. W. Larsen, for appellee.
   Pope, Judge.

The appellee in the above cases filed a motion in the trial court demanding a “trial by jury” identical to the motion filed in State v. Adamczyk, 162 Ga. App. 288 (290 SE2d 149) (1982). The wording of such motion does not constitute a demand for trial under Code § 27-1901.

Accordingly, we reverse the trial court’s judgment of acquittal.

Judgments reversed.

Deen, P. J., and Sognier, J., concur.
