FORBUS v. THE STATE. NICHOLSON

SOGNIER, Judge.

Violation of the Georgia Controlled Substances Act. Appellants' attorney filed a copy of a letter to the Cobb County district attorney in the Superior Court of Cobb County. Included in the letter was a statement asking the district attorney to "please accept this letter as a formal demand for a trial by jury." At trial appellants made a motion for discharge on the ground that after making a demand for trial, they had not been brought to trial within the time required by Code § 27-1901. The trial court denied the motion; in their sole enumeration of error, appellants contend such a denial was error. Pursuant to this court's decision in State v. Adamczyk, 162 Ga. App. 288 ( 290 S.E.2d 149) April (1982), we affirm.

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

DECIDED APRIL 23, 1982 — REHEARING DENIED MAY 10, 1982 — CERT. APPLIED FOR.
