Gorham v. Turner Outdoor Advertising, Ltd.
Gorham v. Turner Outdoor Advertising, Ltd.
Opinion of the Court
Leo H. Gorham appeals from the judgment in favor of Turne Outdoor Advertising, Ltd. (“Turner”) on Turner’s claim against hii for failure to pay for advertising services rendered under a contrac Although he concedes that there is evidence to support the verdie against him personally, Gorham contends that the trial court erred b failing to include in its charge an instruction that an agent acting fc a disclosed principal may be excused from obligation under the cor tract. Held:
1. The face of Gorham’s request to charge shows the trial coui refused to give it because it was not filed in a timely manner. Ther was no error. Uniform State Court Rule 10.3; General Warrant Corp. Ins. &c. v. Cameron-Hogan, 182 Ga. App. 434, 438-439 (35 SE2d 83). Further, we do not find that the charge requested was er tirely correct, accurate, and adjusted to the evidence. Glenridge United Owners Assn. v. Felton, 183 Ga. App. 858, 861 (360 SE2d 418). Addi
2. Turner’s motion for imposition of damages under OCGA § 5-6-6 is denied. Although Gorham’s brief concedes that the evidence is sufficient to support the verdict against him, this appeal however concerns the sufficiency of the charge. Thus, the record and briefs filed in this appeal do not demonstrate that the appeal was filed only for purposes of delay.
Judgment affirmed.
