Syllabus
This Court follows the construction given by the Supreme Court of the Georgia to the statutes of that state called in question in this case.
If, after a regular conviction and sentence in that state, a suggestion of a then-existing insanity is made, it is not necessary, in order to constitute "due process of law," that the question so presented should be tried by a jury.
The case is stated in the opinion. clubjuris
