220 Ga. 228; 1964 Ga. LEXIS 498

Mobley

Opinion

Mobley, Justice.

Where, as here, the sole ground giving this court jurisdiction is the prayer seeking to enjoin the per *229 formance of a contract, and it appearing from oral statements of counsel made in oral argument before this court that the contract has been fully performed, the question of injunction is moot, and this court is without jurisdiction.

State of Ga., 219 Ga. 503 (133 SE2d 865); Douglas-Guardian Warehouse Corp. v. Todd, 212 Ga. 791 (96 SE2d 275).
