Opinion

ARGUED JANUARY 8, 1980.

DECIDED JANUARY 25, 1980.

Rape. Fulton Superior Court. Before Judge Alverson.

Douglas Willix, for appellant.

Lewis R. Slaton, District Attorney, Joseph J. Drolet, Margaret Lines, Assistant District Attorneys, for appellee.

CARLEY, Judge.

Appellant was found guilty of rape by a jury and on appeal enumerates only the general grounds. "The victim's testimony that the accused had raped her, coupled with medical evidence and testimony concerning the victim's actions and demeanor following the rape, was sufficient evidence to authorize the conviction. Johnson v. State, 239 Ga. 116 ( 236 S.E.2d 65)." Moore v. State, 151 Ga. App. 100 ( 258 S.E.2d 915) (1979). Our review of the record convinces us that any rational trior of fact could reasonably have found from the evidence adduced at trial proof of appellant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560) (1979). See also Fisher v. State, 151 Ga. App. 93 ( 258 S.E.2d 920) (1979).

Judgment affirmed. Quillian, P. J., and Shulman, J., concur.

CARLEY, Judge.
