Ramey v. Coney, Lovejoy & Co.
Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided September 22, 1911 · Fish
136 Ga. 791; 72 S.E. 156; 1911 Ga. LEXIS 228

Ramey v. Coney, Lovejoy & Co.

Opinion of the Court

Fish, C. J.

There was no error in the admission of evidence. The instructions to the jury upon which error was assigned were not subject to the exceptions taken thereto; nor did the court err in merely failing to explain to the jury the meaning of “the burden of proof,” or of “ground for reasonable suspicion;” nor in merely failing-to instruct the jury as complained of. The verdict was not without evidence to support it; and the trial judge did not abuse his discretion in refusing to grant a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.

Jiech, J., absent. The other Justices concur.
