Fortson & Co. v. Mikell
Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided August 12, 1895 · Atkinson
97 Ga. 336; 22 S.E. 913

Fortson & Co. v. Mikell

Opinion of the Court

Atkinson, J.

The evidence fully ' warranted the verdict;' and there being no express complaint that the substantial issues involved were not fairly submitted to the jury by the court in its charge, the mere omission to give a particular instruction, even if the same would have been appropriate, is not, in the absence of a special request to give such instruction, cause for a new trial. Judgment affirmed.
