Thomas v. Hubert
Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided May 15, 1951 · Hawkins
65 S.E.2d 155; 208 Ga. 72; 1951 Ga. LEXIS 541 (South Eastern Reporter, Second Series)

Thomas v. Hubert

Opinion

Hawkins, Justice.

The plaintiff in error brought a rule for contempt against his client, who was plaintiff in a divorce and injunction proceeding, and against another member of the bar who had appeared for the plaintiff in the trial of that case. While the rule for contempt' was entitled in the divorce and injunction proceeding, it was not predicated upon any provision of the final decree in that case, and all ques *73 tions of divorce and injunction which the case originally contained had been disposed of by final decree before the present proceeding came to judgment in the trial court. No ruling upon any question involving equity or divorce being presented for review, the Court of Appeals, and not this Court, has jurisdiction of the writ of error.
