Hilton & Dodge Lumber Co. v. Clements

Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided July 20, 1899 · Lewis

108 Ga. 791; 33 S.E. 951; 1899 Ga. LEXIS 423

Opinion of the Court

Lewis, J.

1. On the trial of a claim case involving title to personal property levied on under a fi. fa., when the claimant has given a forthcoming bond for the property actually seized by the officer executing the fi. fa., it is not error for the judge to refuse to dismiss the levy on the ground that the entry thereof on the fi. fa. does not sufficiently describe the property. Cohen v. Broughton, 54 Ga. 296; Crine v. Tifts & Co., 66 Ga. 644.

2. The verdict was not without evidence to support it.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concurring.

Levy and claim. Before Judge Smith. Montgomery superior court. November term, 1898.
