KEITH et al. v. WHITEHEAD et al.
(365 SE2d 435)
Decided March 10, 1988
Reconsideration denied March 30, 1988.
Stewart, Melvin & House, Frank W. Armstrong, for appellants.
Whelchel, Dunlap & Gignilliat, James E. Brim III, for appellees.

Opinion:
Per curiam.
The effort of private parties to widen a roadway without agreement of adjoining landowners may succeed only by acquisition of a private way, as provided in OCGA § 44-9-40 et seq. In this case there is no showing that interlocutory injunction is necessary to preserve the status quo.
Judgment reversed.
All the Justices concur, except Smith, J., who dissents.
