Townsend v. Northcutt
Georgia Court of Appeals
Townsend v. Northcutt, 173 S.E.2d 470 (1970)
121 Ga. App. 230; 1970 Ga. App. LEXIS 1181
Eberhardt, Jordan, Panned
Townsend v. Northcutt
Opinion
The trial judge did not err in denying the plaintiff’s motion to compel answers to interrogatories, the defendant in fi. fa. having responded to the interrogatories by stating under oath: “I refuse to answer on the grounds that this may tend to incriminate me and work a forfeiture of my estate.” See Art. I, Sec. I, Par. VI, Constitution of Georgia, Code Ann. § 2-106; Code § 38-1205; Empire Life Ins. Co. v. Einstein, 12 Ga. App. 380, 383 (77 SE 209); Bishop v. Bishop, 157 Ga. 408 (121 SE 305); Bass v. Bass, 222 Ga. 378, 384 (149 SE2d 818).
Judgment affirmed.
