lead-opinion

HINES, Justice.

We granted certiorari in Garvin v. Secretary of State, 266 Ga. App. 66 (596 SE2d 166) (2004), to determine whether the Court of Appeals erred in concluding that the term “willfully” as used in OCGA § 10-5-13 (a) (1) (A) (iv) requires a knowing and intentional violation of the Georgia Securities Act of 1973 (“Act”), OCGA§ 10-5-1 et seq.
