Perry v. Cochran

Opinion of the Court

By the Court,

Bennett, J.

The motion for a new trial on the ground of newly discovered evidence was properly overruled by the superior court.

There is no other question in the case. The other grounds upon which the appellant asks to have the judgment reversed, are all matters of fact, involving no principle of law, and in regard to which we have often decided that the finding of a jury, or of the court below sitting as a jury, must be final and conclusive.

Judgment affirmed.
