Summary

The Court affirmed the aggravated‑assault conviction and dismissed the appeals for the three injury‑to‑child convictions, holding that the trial court had jurisdiction to grant new trials, that the erroneous instructions in the child cases did not taint the assault instruction, that the substitution of judges was not an abuse of discretion, that the evidence supported the assault conviction, that the photographs were admissible, and that counsel was effective.
