Consolidated Credit Corporation of Dalton v. Short

Court of Appeals of Georgia
Apr 2, 1968
161 S.E.2d 448 (Ga. Ct. App. 1968)

Opinion

43370.

SUBMITTED JANUARY 11, 1968.

DECIDED APRIL 2, 1968.

Action for damages; injunction. Whitfield Superior Court. Before Judge Pope.

Walter H. Bolling, for appellants.

Mitchell Mitchell, Coy H. Temples, for appellee.


The petition in this action prays for, in addition to punitive damages, an injunction against the defendants, a credit loan company and its agent, from "molesting, harassing and threatening . . . by telephone, letters, or in person" the plaintiff, who signed as security a promissory note which subsequently became in default and who, at the time of her signing the note and thereafter, was a married woman. The petition is not for a declaratory judgment; therefore the prayer for the injunction would not be an interlocutory device until a decision on the merits of the petition. The case is, therefore, of the class of which the Supreme Court has exclusive jurisdiction and it is, accordingly transferred to that court.

Transferred to the Supreme Court. Eberhardt and Whitman, JJ., concur.

SUBMITTED JANUARY 11, 1968 — DECIDED APRIL 2, 1968.
