Opinion:
Fish, J.
Where the verdict rendered in a justice's court was not demanded by the law and the evidence, the Supreme Court will not interfere with the first grant of a new trial upon a petition for certiorari containing general grounds, when it does not appear that the certiorari was sustained and the new trial granted upon any special ground. Cox v. Snell, 77 Ga. 469; Savannah Railway v. Fennell, 100 Ga. 474; Boggs Plow Co. v. Biggers, 105 Ga. 471.
Judgment affirmed.
By five Justices.
