Holliday v. Griffith Bros. & West
Supreme Court of Georgia
Holliday v. Griffith Bros. & West, 108 Ga. 803 (Ga. 1899)
34 S.E. 126; 1899 Ga. LEXIS 447
Lumpkin
Holliday v. Griffith Bros. & West
Opinion of the Court
1. When it appears that a contract has been reduced to writing and duly executed, it is erroneous to admit, over proper objection, parol evidence as to its contents; and proving by parol what a given writing does not contain is as much forbidden as proving in this manner what it does contain.
2. The court below erred in overruling the certiorari.
Judgment reversed.
