Mayor &C. of Athens v. Gamma Delta Chapter House Corp.
67 S.E.2d 111; 208 Ga. 392; 1951 Ga. LEXIS 369
(South Eastern Reporter, Second Series)
Mayor &C. of Athens v. Gamma Delta Chapter House Corp.
Opinion
This is an action to recover damages for taking and injuring private property for public use. The Supreme Court is without jurisdiction. Code (Ann.), §§ 2-3704, 2-3708 (Constitution of Georgia; Ga. L. 1945, pp. 43, 44). The mere fact that the Constitution, art. 1, sec. 3, par. 1 (Code, Ann., § 2-301; Ga. L. 1945, p. 13), forbids such injury to or taking of private property without just and adequate compensation being first paid therefor in nowise makes a constitutional question for decision by this court.
Transferred to the• Court of Appeals.
