    Benford v. The State.
    Decided November 14, 1928.
    
      R. D. Peagin, W. E. Bartlett, for plaintiff in error.
    
      Charles 11. Garrett, solicitor-general, contra.
   Bloodwoeti-i, J.

1. “There being no proof of a plenary confession by the accused, but, at most, evidence only of incriminatory admissions, it was such an error to charge the law relating to confessions as to require the grant of a new trial. These incriminatory admissions are not conclusive; and proof of inculpatory admissions will not authorize a charge upon the subject of confession. Owens v. State, 120 Ga. 296 (48 S. E. 21; Riley v. State, 1 Ga. App. 651 (57 S. E. 1031), and decisions cited.” Porter v. State, 11 Ga. App. 246 (74 S. E. 1099). Under the foregoing ruling the judge erred in charging the law relating to confessions. See also Beasley v. State, 28 Ga. App. 564, 565 (112 S. E. 168), and cit.; Chislon v. State, 19 Ga. App. 608 (91 S. E. 893).

2. It is not necessary to pass upon the other grounds of the motion for a new trial, as the issues raised therein are not likely to recur on another trial.

Judgment reversed.

Broyles, G. J., and Luke, J., concur.
