Collier v. Holland
Collier v. Holland
Opinion of the Court
In the order overruling the motion for a new trial the judge said: “In my opinion no error of law ivas committed by the court in the trial of said case, and under the following decisions, to wit: Hardin v. Stansel, 13 Ga. App. 22 [28 S. E. 681], Graves v. Hunnicutt, 8 Ga. App 99 [68 S. E. 558], Doonan v. Ives, 73 Ga. 295 (3), Mousseau v. Dorsett, 80 Ga. 566 [5 S. E. 780], Hill v. Wheeler, 2 Ga. App. 349 [58 S. E. 502], the evidence authorized the verdict rendered. As to the newly discovered evidence of Pleas. M. Todd as set out in the amended motion for new trial, it is only cumulative in its nature, and movant contended in his testimony that the facts set out in the affidavit of Todd were correct. It could only be regarded as evidence corroborating movant and impeaching in its character, and under section 6086 of the Civil Code (1910) and authorities in connection there
So far as appears from the motion for a new trial, we agree with the trial judge that “no error of law was committed by the court in the trial of said case.” Not one of the several grounds of the motion shows any cause which requires the grant of a neiv trial.
Judgment affirmed.
