Jones v. Howard
Jones v. Howard
96 Ga. 752; 22 S.E. 291
Jones v. Howard
Opinion of the Court
The registry act of October 1st, 1889, does'not contemplate or require that a distress warrant for rent shall be entered upon the general execution docket provided for by section 2 of that act. As the judge below who tried the case without a jury entertained a contrary view, and therefore necessarily rendered a judgment in favor of the prevailing party, irrespective of the disputed question of fact involved, there should be a new trial.
Judgment reversed.
