Opinion

52182.

SUBMITTED MAY 5, 1976.

DECIDED MAY 20, 1976.

Robbery. Fulton Superior Court. Before Judge Langford.

Horton J. Greene, for appellant.

Lewis R. Slaton, District Attorney, Joseph J. Drolet, Donald G. Frost, Assistant District Attorneys, for appellee.


1. A motion to suppress evidence which is made orally is procedurally defective and a denial thereof is authorized. Code Ann. § 27-313 (b); Graves v. State, 135 Ga. App. 921 ( 219 S.E.2d 633).

2. Appellant complains of a portion of the district attorney's closing argument. However, no objection was made at trial, and no reversible error appears. Gerdine v. State, 136 Ga. App. 561, 562 (3) ( 222 S.E.2d 128).

3. The evidence authorized the guilty verdict, and the general grounds of the motion for new trial are without merit.

Judgment affirmed. Deen, P. J., and Quillian, J., concur.

SUBMITTED MAY 5, 1976 — DECIDED MAY 20, 1976.
