Opinion

Broyles, C. J.

1. Relationship of a juror within the prohibited degree to the defendant is not cause for a new trial in a criminal case, although the relationship was unknown to the defendant or his counsel until after the verdict. McCrimmon v. State, 126 Ga. 560 (2) (55 S. E. 481).

[70]*70Decided January 17, 1922.

Indictment for possessing intoxicating liquor; from Wilkes superior court — Judge Shurley. September 29, 1921.

William Wynne, Hugh E. Combs, for plaintiff in error. M. L. Felts, solicitor-general, contra.

2. The verdict was amply authorized by the evidence, and the court did not err in overruling the motion for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.
