Georgia Court of Appeals, 1969

Herring v. RL MATHIS CERTIFIED DAIRY COMPANY

Georgia Court of Appeals · Decided February 21, 1969 · Quillian, Bell, Hall

166 S.E.2d 607; 119 Ga. App. 226; 1969 Ga. App. LEXIS 1054 (South Eastern Reporter, Second Series)

Opinion

Quillian, Judge.

In Bourn v. Herring, 225 Ga. 67, the Supreme Court reversed that part of the judgments of this court (118 Ga. App. 132), holding that the petition stated a claim against the defendants based on their lack of ordinary care. Accordingly, in compliance with the mandate of the Supreme Court, *227 the original judgments of this court are vacated and judgments are entered in conformity with that opinion which holds that “the petition in the instant case is sufficient to withstand the motions to dismiss because the issues of the liability of the defendants for wilful misconduct and want of ordinary capacity in the decedent remain to be determined by further proceedings.” Hn. 3.

Decided February 21, 1969. Freeman B. Hardisty, Frank Fuller, for appellant. Lokey & Bowden, Glenn Frick, O’Kelley, Hopkins & Van Gerpen, H. Lowell Hopkins, Long, Weinberg & Ansley, Palmer H. Ansley, John K. Dunlap, for appellees.

Judgment reversed in Case No. 43530; judgment affirmed in Case No. 43540.

Bell, P. J., and Hall, J., concur.
