McMahon v. Folds

Court of Appeals of Georgia

121 S.E.2d 192 (Ga. Ct. App. 1961)

Opinion

38909.

DECIDED JUNE 22, 1961. REHEARING DENIED JULY 7, 1961.

Appellate procedure. Carroll Superior Court. Before Judge Boykin.

A. B. Parker, for plaintiff in error.

O. W. Roberts, Jr., contra.


The bill of exceptions in this case, after reciting the final judgment of the court, states merely that "Plaintiff disagrees with this ruling." A bill of exceptions containing no assignment of error cannot be entertained by this court. Lawson v. Brown, 31 Ga. App. 302 ( 120 S.E. 550). Examination of the record in the Lawson case shows that it recited only: "The judgment in said case was adverse to petitioner and he is dissatisfied therewith." In neither case does the bill of exceptions "specify plainly . . . the alleged error" as required by Code Ann. § 6-901, and the motion to dismiss the bill of exceptions is therefore meritorious. Writ of error dismissed. Frankum and Jordan, JJ., concur.

DECIDED JUNE 22, 1961 — REHEARING DENIED JULY 7, 1961.
