14288.
    Roberts v. The State.
    Decided April 10, 1923.
    Indictment for larceny of automobile; from Fulton superior court — Judge Humphries. January 6, 1923.
    
      A. S. Johnson, for plaintiff in error.
    
      John A. Boykin, solicitor-general, B. A. Stephens, contra.
   Luke, J.

The evidence amply authorized the conviction of the accused, and the conviction has the approval of the trial judge.

The special ground of the motion for a new trial, as to newly discovered 'evidence, does not come up to the rule that it should be neither cumulative nor impeaching and would likely produce a different result upon another trial. It was not error to overrule the motion for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, C. J.; and'.Bloodworth, J., concur.
