Noel v. State
Assuming, without deciding, that appellant’s pre-trial statement was sufficient to support the giving of the requested charges, see Booker v. State, 247 Ga. 74, 74 ( 274 SE2d 334 ) (1981), we conclude the trial court’s decision not to give these charges does not require reversal.

“Both the courts and commentators have long noted that since the true effect of an alibi defense is to traverse the state’s proof that the defendant committed the crime, the charge that the burden is on the state to prove that the defendant committed the crime beyond a reasonable doubt itself necessarily covers the question of whether the evidence of alibi was sufficient to create a reasonable doubt.” Rivers v. State, supra at 300; see also Booker v. State, 247 Ga. 74 ( 274 SE2d 334 ) (1981); Lavender v. State, 234 Ga. 608 ( 216 SE2d 855 ) (1975); Bone v. State, 102 Ga. 387 ( 30 SE 845 )…

In these granted certioraris, the Court of Appeals held that under State v. Stonaker, 236 Ga. 1 (222 SE2d 354) (1976), it was not error for the trial court to fail to charge on the affirmative defense of justification absent a written request. Booker v. State, 156 Ga. App. 40 (1980). Stonaker, supra, is inapposite as it applies only to charges on lesser included offenses. The applicable law is set out in Lavender v. State, 234 Ga. 608 (216 SE2d 855) (1975). If an affirmative defense is raised by the evidence, including the defendants’ own statements, the trial court must present the affirmative defense to the jury as part of the case in its charge, even absent a request. The affirmative defense, however, need not be specifically charged if the case as a whole is fairly presented to the jury. Lavender v. State, supra. We thus remand to the Court of Appeals to examine whether the charge here meets this test.
Judgment reversed.
