Supreme Court of Georgia, 1982

McLaughlin v. Department of Transportation

Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided September 29, 1982 · Smith

250 Ga. 10; 297 S.E.2d 217

Opinion of the Court

Order Of Court.

Upon consideration of the application for certiorari filed to review the judgment of the Court of Appeals in this case, it is ordered that the writ be hereby denied.

All the Justices concur, except Smith, J., who dissents.

Dissenting Opinion

Smith, Justice,

dissenting.

I would grant the application for certiorari. In my opinion the decision of the Court of Appeals is in direct conflict with Dept. of Transp. v. Driggers, 150 Ga. App. 270 (257 SE2d 294) (1979). We should grant the application to resolve any conflict between the two decisions.
