Bennett Plumbing Company v. Lovins

Supreme Court of Georgia

175 S.E.2d 834 (Ga. 1970)

Opinion

25879.

ARGUED JUNE 9, 1970.

DECIDED JUNE 25, 1970. REHEARING DENIED JULY 9, 1970.

Workmen's compensation. DeKalb Superior Court. Before Judge Dean.

Neely, Freeman Hawkins, Edgar A. Neely, Jr., for appellants.

G. Robert Howard, for appellees.


In the instant appeal from the judgment of the Superior Court of DeKalb County overruling and denying an appeal from an award of the full Workmen's Compensation Board which reversed the award of a single director, jurisdiction of this court is predicated upon constitutional questions being involved. However, such questions, two of which relate to application only, were raised for the first time upon the appeal to the superior court, and therefore are not properly raised for decision by this court. Burnett v. Burnett, 209 Ga. 353 ( 72 S.E.2d 459) (three Justices not participating); Taylor v. Smith, 211 Ga. 5 ( 83 S.E.2d 602); Hammock v. Davidson Granite Co., 218 Ga. 622 ( 129 S.E.2d 797).

Transferred to the Court of Appeals. All the Justices concur.

ARGUED JUNE 9, 1970 — DECIDED JUNE 25, 1970 — REHEARING DENIED JULY 9, 1970.
