Fulton Grocery Co. v. Maddox

Opinion of the Court

Lewis, J.

This was a motion to reinstate a motion for new trial, which had heen dismissed for want of prosecution. No sufficient reason appears for the failure of the movant’s counsel to appear in court and prosecute the motion for new trial. This court will, accordingly, not interfere with the discretion of the trial judge in refusing to reinstate the motion.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concurring, except Little, J., absent.
