Butts County v. Johnson

Opinion of the Court

Evans, P. J.

Under the ruling in Seymore v. Elbert County, 116 Ga. 371 (42 S. E. 727), the petition was defective in failing to allege that the bridge claimed to have been in disrepair was built subsequently to the act of December 29, 1888, and should have been dismissed on demurrer.

Judgment reversed.

All the Justices concur.
