Court of Appeals of Georgia

177 S.E.2d 264 (Ga. Ct. App. 1970)

Opinion

45399.

ARGUED JUNE 4, 1970.

DECIDED SEPTEMBER 11, 1970.

Action for damages. Decatur Superior Court. Before Judge Culpepper.

Perry, Walters, Langstaff, Lippitt Campbell, Jesse W. Walters, for appellant.

Conger Conger, Leonard H. Conger, for appellee.


Appellee was the plaintiff in the court below and the appellant was the defendant. The plaintiff appellee brought an action seeking to recover for damages sustained as a result of an automobile collision between automobiles driven by the respective parties. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff and the defendant appealed to this court enumerating error on the overruling of his motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, on the overruling of the general grounds of his motion for new trial, and on two charges of the court. Held:

1. The evidence was amply sufficient to authorize the verdict and there was no error in overruling the motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict and in overruling the motion for new trial on the general grounds.

2. Neither the enumeration of errors nor the brief of the appellant refers to the pages in the transcript wherein the alleged charges complained of may be found or where the alleged objections made may be found. Under these circumstances, the enumerations of error complaining of the charges of the court will be considered as abandoned. See Estes v. Perkins, 225 Ga. 268 ( 167 S.E.2d 588); Clark v. Perrin, 225 Ga. 571 ( 170 S.E.2d 236); Holland v. Watson, 118 Ga. App. 468 (3) ( 164 S.E.2d 343).

Judgment affirmed. Jordan, P. J., and Eberhardt, J., concur.

ARGUED JUNE 4, 1970 — DECIDED SEPTEMBER 11, 1970.
