Farmers & Merchants Bank v. Willie
Opinion of the Court
1, A bill of exceptions which, after reciting that a petition for certiorari was presented to the judge and he refused to sanction it, alleges that the applicant excepted to the order of the judge refusing to sanction the petition, “and now excepts and assigns the same as error on the grounds that said petition for certiorari should have been sanctioned on each and every ground of error contained in said petition for certiorari,” contains an assignment of error sufficient to bring under investigation the grounds of complaint embraced in the petition for certiorari. Central of Ga. Ry. Co. v. Woolsey, 112 Ga. 365 (1) (37 S. E. 392).
2.
