ARGUED MARCH 8, 1971.

Action on note. Chattooga State Court. Before Judge Westbrook.

John W. Edge, for appellant.

Rogers, Magruder Hoyt, Karl M. Kothe, Hansell, Post, Brandon Dorsey, Allen Post, J. William Gibson, for appellee.


This appeal is from a judgment granted on motion of plaintiff for summary judgment on his complaint, which sought to recover a money judgment on a promissory note. In defendant's answer, the primary defense was that the purported sale contract was given to secure a usurious loan. The prayers were that the note and purported conditional sale contract be annulled and canceled.

No basis exists for this court's jurisdiction. (Const. Art. VI, Sec. II, Par. IV; Code Ann. § 2-3704). Simpson v. McMillan, 150 Ga. 119 ( 102 S.E. 825); Jones v. Van Vleck, 224 Ga. 796 ( 164 S.E.2d 724); Clark v. Liberty Loan Corp., 223 Ga. 351 ( 155 S.E.2d 19); s. c., 116 Ga. App. 213 ( 156 S.E.2d 535).

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