Brown v. The State.
Indictment for assault with intent to murder, from Cobb superior court — Judge Gober. January 23, 1907.
Submitted March 20,
Decided March 28, 1907.
Griffin & Attaway, for plaintiff in error.
B. F. Simpson, solicitor-general, contra.

Opinion:
Powell, J,
1. The evidence authorized the verdict.
2. The exceptions to the charge of the court are not well taken.
3. Ineligibility of a juror because of service in the same court during the next preceding term thereof renders him incompetent propter defectum, and is good ground for challenge, if made in due time; but it is not good as a ground for new trial, in the absence of such challenge. Jackson v. State, 125 Ga. 277. Judgment affirmed.
