3 Ga. App. 296; 59 S.E. 844; 1907 Ga. App. LEXIS 626

Monroe v. Citizens Bank

Opinion of the Court

Powell, J.

The petition showing that the notice given the defendant to hold him liable for attorney’s fees was not in compliance with the statute, the court erred in including in the judgment by default, which was otherwise properly rendered, the amount of attorney’s fees claimed. The judgment is therefore affirmed, with direction that the sum adjudged against the defendant on account of attorney’s fees be written off.

Judgment affirmed, with direction.
