Norman v. Georgia
Annotate this CaseKaron Norman was tried by jury and convicted of murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime in connection with the 1997 fatal shooting of Keith Williams. Norman raised three claims on appeal: (1) he was denied the effective assistance of counsel when his lawyer entered a stipulation at trial about his 1993 juvenile adjudication for murder; (2) the trial court gave erroneous limiting instructions to the jury concerning the evidence of the 1993 murder; and (3) his due process rights were violated by the 17-year delay in his post-conviction proceedings. Finding no reversible error, the Georgia Supreme Court affirmed.
