Adkerson v. Georgia Power Co.

Shulman, Presiding Judge.

Georgia Power Company condemned an easement across a parcel of land in Pike County. Appellee Harwell was in possession of the land under a warranty deed from one Jones. That deed was subject to a deed to secure debt executed by Jones in favor of appellant Adkerson. Harwell and Adkerson both claimed the entire fund. Based on the Florida case of Investors Syndicate of America v. Dade County, 98 S2d 889, the trial court apportioned the award 90 % to Harwell and 10% to Adkerson. This appeal is from that judgment.
