COGGINS v. THE STATE.
64617.
BANKE, Judge.
Mutiny in penal institution. Tattnall Superior Court. Before Judge Findley.
The defendant appeals his convictions on three counts of mutiny in a penal institution. Held:
1. There is no indication that any of the prospective jurors had formed fixed opinions as to the defendant's guilt or innocence; and, consequently, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying the defendant's motion for change in venue. See Coleman v. State, 237 Ga. 84, 90 (226 SE2d 911) (1976); Baker v. State, 245 Ga. 657, 659 (2) (266 SE2d 477) (1980).
