Anderson v. Southern Bell Telephone & Telegraph Company
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
Nichols, Presiding Judge.
1. An action brought in a Federal district court against a corporation and dismissed, because no diversity of citizenship existed under Federal statutes, cannot be again brought in a superior court of this State within six months under the provisions of Code § 3-808 so as to avoid the statute of limitation which had attached before the second suit was filed. See Constitution Pub. Co. v. DeLaughter, 95 Ga. 17 (21 SE 1000); Webb v. Southern Cotton Oil Co., 131 Ga. 682 (63 SE 135); and Hendricks v. Southern R. Co., 17 Ga. App. 638 (87 SE 908).
