34900.
    SIRMONS et al. v. THE STATE.
    Submitted May 4, 1979
    Decided May 21, 1979.
    
      Al Horn, for appellants.
    
      Glenn Thomas, District Attorney, John B. Johnson, III, Assistant District Attorney, for appellee.
   Per curiam.

The nine appellants are indicted for allegedly smuggling 26 tons of marijuana into Georgia. Their bonds are set at $125,000 each. This habeas corpus complains the bonds are excessive and equivalent to a refusal to grant bail. Jones v. Grimes, 219 Ga. 585 (134 SE2d 790) (1964). We affirm. The trial judge did not abuse his discretion in setting bail.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
