RILEY v. THE STATE.

BELL, Chief Judge.

Defendant was convicted of burglary. He enumerates errors concerning the charge to the jury. Held:

1. A charge to the jury in which the defendant's contentions are outlined is not error under our recent holding in Moran v. State, 139 Ga. App. 274 ( 228 S.E.2d 216) and wherein we overruled Graham v. State, 135 Ga. App. 825 ( 219 S.E.2d 477) and other cases.

2. The defendant made no written request to charge on the lesser offense of criminal trespass. In the absence of a written request, a failure to charge on a lesser offense is not error. State v. Stonaker, 236 Ga. 1 ( 222 S.E.2d 354).

Judgment affirmed. Clark and Stolz, JJ., concur.

SUBMITTED SEPTEMBER 22, 1976 — DECIDED OCTOBER 26, 1976.
