Defendant Jesus Ginjauma was convicted of trafficking in cocaine in violation of the Georgia Controlled Substances Act. Co-defendant Norma Cubas was found not guilty of the same charge. On appeal defendant contends the trial court erred in charging the jury on both actual and constructive possession inasmuch as the indictment charged he was "knowingly [in] actual possession of cocaine in an amount greater than 28 grams. . . ." 1 See Lockwood v. State, 257 Ga. 796 (364 SE2d 574) (1988). The record reveals, however, that immediately after defining and distinguishing the two types of possession, the court charged the jury that they would be authorized to convict the defendants of the crime charged only "if you believe beyond a reasonable doubt that these defendants, or either of them, knowingly,, and were in actual possession of 28 grams or more of cocaine. . . ." (Emphasis supplied.) Thus, contrary to defendant's assertion, the trial court did not misstate the law, as the Supreme Court held in Lockwood, and the trial court's charge provides no basis for reversal. Partridge v. State, 187 Ga. App. 325 (5) (370 SE2d 173) (1988); Raines v. State, 186 Ga. App. 239 (4 b) (366 SE2d 841) (1988).
