84 Ga. 579

Savannah, Florida & Western Railway Co. v. Steininger & Co.

Opinion of the Court

Bleckley, Chief Justice.

It is doubtful whether the justice of the peace committed any error in admitting evidence; but whether he did or not, we think there was nothing to constrain the judge of the superior court to reverse the case and order a new trial. The legal evidence before the jury warranted the verdict, and in our opinion, this petty litigation ought to stop. Certainly the weight of the evidence is in favor of the verdict. Judgment affirmed.
