Roberts v. National Bank

Roberts v. National Bank
Georgia Court of Appeals · Decided January 15, 1912 · Powell
10 Ga. App. 272; 73 S.E. 407; 1912 Ga. App. LEXIS 455

Roberts v. National Bank

Opinion of the Court

Powell, J.

While in particular facts these cases differ somewhat from the case of Hansford v. National Bank of Tifton, in general principle they are covered by it. In these cases the prosecution was for cheating and swindling, whereas in that case it was for carrying concealed weapons. Both of these offenses are simply violations of penal laws, of this State, with the enforcement of which national banks have no concern whatever.

Judgment affirmed.
