HORNE v. THE STATE.

PER CURIAM.

The bill of exceptions here assigns error on the refusal of the trial judge to enter an order discharging and acquitting the defendant of the offense of robbery after a demand for trial was made at one term of court and the failure to try him at the next term, under the provisions of Ch. 27-19 of the Code of 1933, as amended by the act of 1952 (Ga. L. 1952, p. 299; Code, Ann., §§ 27-1901.1, 27-1901.2). Held:

Transferred to the Court of Appeals. All the Justices concur.

SUBMITTED JUNE 12, 1956 — DECIDED JUNE 12, 1956.
