Starnes v. Bacon

Court of Appeals of Georgia

Decided May 5, 1920No. 11010PublishedCited by 3 opinions

Certiorari; from Chatham superior court — Judge Meldrim. July 11, 1919.

1Opinion of the CourtStephens, J.

1. A petition for certiorari must except to a final judgment, and must plainly and distinctly set forth the errors complained of.

2. An exception “ that the judgment entered on such verdict does not follow the verdict,” without alleging wherein such judgment fails to follow the verdict is not a complete and valid assignment of error. Searcy v. Collins, 94 Ga. 642 (20 S. E. 94).

3. A petition for certiorari which contained no valid assignment of error upon a final judgment and which complained only of rulings made upon the trial, was invalid, and the judge did not err in failing to sustain it.
