Hughes v. The State.
Decided March 6, 1923.

Opinion:
Luke, J.
1. Under the ruling of the Supreme Court in Cone v. American Surety Co., 154 Ga. 841 (115 S. E. 481), the city court of Richmond county is a constitutional city court.
2. The motion for a new trial contained the usual general grounds only; there was some slight evidence authorizing the verdict; and, the trial court having approved the finding of the jury, this court is without authority to interfere.
Judgment affirmed.
Broyles, O. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur.
