16349.
    Lawrenceville Cotton Company v. Southern Railway Company.
    Decided September 9, 1925.
    Complaint; from Gwinnett superior court—Judge Stark. March 6, 1935.
    
      W. 0. Cooper Jr., John C. Houston, for plaintiff in error.
    
      Charters & Wheeler, Kelley & Kelley, contra.
   Bell, J.

This court is without jurisdiction to entertain a bill of exceptions which fails to assign error upon a final judgment. Civil Code (1910), § 6138. A judgment striking a plea is not a final judgment. The instant bill of exceptions, having complained only of the judgment striking, the defendant’s plea, must be dismissed; and this is true even though it appears in the record that the case was finally terminated by a judgment in favor of the plaintiff. Pierce v. Felts, 23 Ga. App. 665 (99 S. E. 139).

Writ of error dismissed.

Jenhins, P. J., and Stephens, J., concur.
