Broyles, J. 1. Ineligibility of a juror because of service in the same court during its next preceding term renders him incompetent propter defectum and is a good ground for challenge, but is not cause for a new trial, even though the fact of his ineligibility was not known to the defendant until after the verdict was rendered. Jordan v. State, 119 Ga. 443 (6), 445 (46 S. E. 679); Hill v. State, 122 Ga. 166 (50 S. E. 57).
2. The evidence authorized the verdict. Judgment affirmed.
