Chlupacek v. Chlupacek

Supreme Court of Georgia

Decided June 25, 1970No. 25733Published

1Dissent

Felton, Justice,

dissenting. 1. Mitchell v. Mitchell, 95 Ga. 795, supra, cited by the majority in their first headnote, is not authority for its holding in this case under its peculiar facts. In this case this court simply ruled that a mere verdict denying a divorce was not final until a judgment was rendered on the verdict, and there was no such judgment in that case.

2. This is an unusual case and, insofar as I can determine, it is one of first impression. In this case the court reserved jurisdiction to render a judgment on temporary alimony (which I think all agree includes attorney’s fees)…
