Hutchins v. Watkins

Opinion of the Court

Bloodwobth, J.

β€œThe motion for new trial in this case contained the usual general grounds only, and there being evidence to sustain the verdict, this court cannot disturb the finding of the jury by overruling the refusal of the trial judge to grant a new trial upon the ground that the verdict was contrary to evidence or without evidence to support it. Davis v. Kirkland, 1 Ga. App. 5 (58 S. E. 209); Stricklin v. Crawley, 1 Ga. App. 139 (58 S. E. 215); Charles v. Brooker, 1 Ga. App. 219 (58 S. E. 218); Daughtry v. Savannah & Ry. Co., 1 Ga. App. 393 (58 S. E. 230); Edge v. Thomas, 9 Ga. App. 559 (71 S. E. 875).” McCarty v. Keys, 19 Ga. App. 494 (91 S. E. 875); Bradham v. State, 21 Ga. App. 510 (94 S. E. 618), and cases cited.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, C. J., and Luke, J., concur.
