JOHNSON v. THE STATE.

QUILLIAN, Chief Judge.

The defendant appeals the revocation of his probation. Held:

1. The condition the defendant was charged with violating was one which provided for a "10:00 P.M. to 6:00 A.M. Curfew."

This court and our Supreme Court have often held that Code Ann. § 27-2711 (Ga. L. 1958, pp. 15, 23; as amended through Ga. L. 1965, pp. 413, 416) is to be construed as permissive rather than exclusive, permitting under its terms any reasonable probation condition to be imposed. George v. State, 99 Ga. App. 892, 893 (1) ( 109 S.E.2d 883); Gay v. State, 101 Ga. App. 225 (1) ( 113 S.E.2d 223); Geiger v. State, 140 Ga. App. 800, 802 (3) ( 232 S.E.2d 109); Wood v. State, 150 Ga. App. 582, 583 (2) ( 258 S.E.2d 171); State v. Collett, 232 Ga. 668, 670 ( 208 S.E.2d 472); Ward v. State, 248 Ga. 60, 63 (2) ( 281 S.E.2d 503).

2. From an examination of the record and transcript it is apparent that there is some evidence sufficient to sustain the trial judge's finding that the defendant violated the terms of his probation and that because of a pattern of several such violations his conduct was wilful and intentional.

Judgment affirmed. Shulman, P. J., and Carley, J., concur.
