Head Matter:
Equitable Securities Company v. Worley.
Submitted March 21,—
Decided April 20, 1899.
Attachment. Before Judge Proffitt. City court of Elberton. July 12, 1898.
John P. Shannon, for plaintiff in error.

Opinion:
Cobb, J.
1. The overruling of a demurrer to a petition, even if erroneous, is not a proper ground of a motion for a new trial.
2. This court will not disturb a judgment denying a new trial, when the only grounds of the motion therefor which can be considered are that the verdict was contrary to law and the evidence, and it appears that there was sufficient evidence to -warrant the finding of the jury.
Judgment affirmed.
All the Jxistices concurring.
