Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided July 23, 1901 · Lumpkin
113 Ga. 1071; 39 S.E. 405; 1901 Ga. LEXIS 493

Beysiegel v. Rome Mutual Loan Ass'n

Opinion of the Court

Lumpkin, P. J.

1. An injunction should not be granted when the plaintiff in the petition therefor has a complete and adequate remedy at law.

2. The defendant in error in the present case had such a remedy by claim, the successful prosecution of which would, for all essential purposes, have been as effectual as the equitable proceeding; nor was this proceeding maintainable on the theory that it was necessary to prevent a multiplicity of suits.

Judgment reversed.

All the Justices concurring.
