Lankford v. Holton
Lankford v. Holton
Opinion of the Court
(After stating the foregoing facts.) Chester L. Lankford, as the transferee of Mattie L. Lankford, could acquire from her no better title than she had. In Holton v. Lankford, 195 Ga. 318 (24 S. E. 2d, 292), it was held that Mrs. Mattie L. Lankford had no title, either legal or equitable, to the land in question. In Lankford v. Holton, 196 Ga. 631 (27 S. E. 2d, 310), it was held that questions previously determined by former litigation could not be relitigated. In Lankford v. Holton, 204 Ga. 192 (48 S. E. 2d, 833), it was again held that title to this land could not be relitigated by Mrs. Mattie L. Lankford. Chester L. Lankford, as transferee of Mrs. Mattie L. Lankford, would stand in no better position than his transferor, and accordingly the trial court did not err in sustaining a general demurrer to the petition.
Judgment affirmed.
