15048.
    Shaw v. The State.
    Decided December 5, 1923.
    Indictment for larceny of automobile; from Fulton superior court—Judge E. D. Thomas. September 8, 1923.
    
      O. G. Battle, IF. Paul Carpenter, for plaintiff in error.
    
      John A. Boykin, solicitor-general, E. A. Stephens, R. H. Pharr, contra.
   Broyles, ó. J.

1. The exceptions pendente lite (complaining of the overruling of a demurrer to the indictment) cannot-be considered, as the main bill of exceptions contains no assignment of error upon the exceptions pendente lite or upon the judgment of the court overruling the demurrer. Nor can the overruling of a demurrer to an indictment be a ground of a motion for a new trial.

2. The verdict was authorized by the evidence, and none of the grounds of the amendment to the motion for a new trial which were approved by the court (the disapproved grounds not being considered) requires a reversal of the judgment below.

Judgment affirmed.

Luke and Bloodworth, JJ., concur.
