Supreme Court of Georgia, 1932

Eady v. Magnolia Cemetery Co.

Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided October 12, 1932 · Gilbert

175 Ga. 787; 166 S.E. 436; 1932 Ga. LEXIS 331

Opinion of the Court

Gilbert, J.

Where the judge’s certificate to a bill of exceptions verifies it in part only, and shows it to be in part untrue, the certificate is not a lawful one, and the writ of error must be dismissed. Hawkins v. Americus, 102 Ga. 786 (30 S. E. 519); Fort v. Sheffield, 108 Ga. 781 (33 *788S. E. 660); Jarriel v. Jarriel, 115 Ga. 23 (41 S. E. 262); Priester v. Bray, 138 Ga. 69 (74 S. E. 757); Central of Ga. Ry. Co. v. Mills, 143 Ga. 47 (84 S. E. 120); Love v. Love, 146 Ga. 160 (91 S. E. 27); Adamson v. Bradley, 147 Ga. 328 (93 S. E. 894). The certificate to the bill of exceptions in the present case is fatally defective, in the light of the foregoing decisions.

No. 9162. October 12, 1932. Spence & Spence, for plaintiffs. T. M. Smith and J. V. Poole, for defendants.

Writ of error dismissed.
