Description
A jury found Adell Hawks guilty of aggravated assault after hearing evidence that he hit Debra Denise Lee with a stick. He appeals the judgment entered on that conviction. 1. Hawks asserts the state's notice of intent to present similar transaction evidence was legally insufficient because it did not specify the legitimate purpose for which the state sought to introduce the evidence. Hawks relies on Rodriguez v. State, 211 Ga. App. 256, 258-259 (4) (a) (439 S.E.2d 510) (1993), in which we said: ""[W]e note for the benefit of the bench and bar that the notice of intent to introduce evidence of similar crimes should clearly specify the proper purpose for which introduction of such evidence is sought, `as an exception to the general rule of inadmissibility. [Cit.]' Hightower v. State, 210 Ga. App. 386, 388 (3) (436 S.E.2d 28) (1993). The purpose of timely advance notice is to allow the defendant to investigate the validity, relevancy, and other aspects of admissibility of the prior offenses.
