Nash v. Williamson
Nash v. Williamson
Opinion
This litigation arose when the plaintiff filed an application, under the provisions of Code § 85-1504, to partition certain land which she and the defendants allegedly own as tenants in common. She prayed for a sale of the property as provided for by Code § 85-1511, and that the proceeds of the sale be divided among the several owners ratably and in proportion to their respective interests after reimbursement to her of $300 which she had paid as taxes on the common property, and certain expenses incurred by her in probating the will *805 under which she and the other owners acquired their title. The application was dismissed on general demurrer thereto and the exception is to that judgment. Held:
The plaintiff’s application to partition certain land, as brought under the provisions of Code §§ 85-1504, 85-1511 is a purely statutory proceeding, and it is settled by the rulings in Anderson v. Anderson, 151 Ga. 518 (107 S. E. 334), and Werner v. Werner, 196 Ga. 1 (25 S. E. 2d 676, 146 A. L. R. 1263), that the Court of Appeals and not this court has jurisdiction of the present writ of error; and it is accordingly
Transferred to that Court.
