Ellington v. Georgia
Annotate this CaseVincent Ellington was convicted by jury for the 2016 shooting death of Jeremy Fulton. On appeal, Ellington challenged the sufficiency of the evidence supporting his conviction, and argued the trial court erred when it limited his cross-examination of one of the State’s witnesses. Finding only that the Ellington’s conviction for possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony should have merged for sentencing purposes into his conviction for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon during the commission of a felony, the Georgia Supreme Court remanded this case for recalculation of Ellington’s sentence. His convictions were otherwise affirmed.
