1. “The superior court has, on certiorari, no power to grant a new trial in an inferior judicatory, on the ground of alleged newly discovered evidence.” Laffitte v. State, 105 Ga. 596 (31 S. E. 540).

2. Though weak and unsatisfactory, there was some evidence to support the verdict, and the judgment overruling the certiorari will not be disturbed. Judgment affirmed.
