Taurean Kavon Morris appealed convictions arising from a violent criminal episode and challenged the sufficiency of the evidence, several trial rulings, and the effectiveness of counsel. The Court of Appeals affirmed the convictions in the respects supported by the record but vacated part of the sentence. The court held that the evidence authorized the jury’s findings and that the claimed trial errors did not require a new trial. It nevertheless concluded that certain offenses had to be merged or otherwise could not support separate sentences under Georgia’s sentencing law. Because the sentencing errors affected the judgment but not the underlying verdicts, the proper remedy was to vacate the affected portion of the sentence and remand for resentencing consistent with the opinion. The court rejected the remaining ineffective-assistance and evidentiary claims or found them moot in light of the sentencing disposition. The judgment was affirmed in part, vacated in part, and remanded with direction.
