SUBMITTED JUNE 9, 1965.
DECIDED JUNE 24, 1965.
Appellate procedure. Hall Superior Court. Before Judge Smith.
John N. Crudup, for plaintiff in error.
Charles L. Henry, Frank B. Stowe, contra.
Under the provisions of Code Ann. § 6-901, a bill of exceptions assigning error on a ruling or judgment of the trial court must plainly specify the decision complained of and the alleged error therein. So, where the decision complained of is not one either granting or denying a motion for a new trial, and where the judgment complained of might have been assigned as error on two or more possible grounds, a mere general assignment of error that such judgment is excepted to "as being contrary to law" is too vague, indefinite and uncertain to present any question for decision by this court. Soman v. Yeager, 209 Ga. 444 ( 73 S.E.2d 198); Carter v. Langdale Co., 217 Ga. 800 ( 125 S.E.2d 487); Palmer v. Ingram, 2 Ga. App. 200 (1) ( 58 S.E. 362); Scott v. Weinberg, 97 Ga. App. 27 ( 102 S.E.2d 56); Chesser v. Scarborough, 106 Ga. App. 529 ( 127 S.E.2d 493); Alligood v. State, 108 Ga. App. 453 (3) ( 133 S.E.2d 431). There being no other assignment of error in the case, the writ of error must be
Dismissed. Bell, P. J., and Hall, J., concur.
