Shiflett v. City of Cedartown

Opinion of the Court

Little, J.

The instructions excepted to were, in tlie main, correct statements of well-settled rules of law, and, if in any respect inaccurate, embraced no error which could have operated to the prejudice of the losing party. The requests to charge were, so far as legal and pertinent, covered by the general ■charge; and the verdict was supported by the evidence. It does not appear -that there was any abuse of discretion in denying a new' trial.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concurring.
