113 Ga. 983 | Ga. | 1901
An execution in favor of the Equitable Mortgage Company and against W. W. Braswell, as administrator of E. M. Brown deceased, and directed generally against the goods and chattels, lands and tenements, belonging to the estate of the deceased in the hands of the administrator to be administered, and specially against certain described land, was levied on such land, which was claimed by Almand & George. Upon the trial of the issue the court directed a verdict finding the property subject; whereupon claimants excepted.
Claimants objected to the admission in evidence of the record in the case of Braswell, administrator of Brown v. Equitable Mortgage Company et al., upon the ground that the claimants were not parties thereto and not hound thereby. The objection was overruled and the record .admitted. This was error, but, as the only object in introducing such record in evidence was to show that there was no usury in the deed from Brown to the Equitable Mortgage Company, claimants were not injured by such error, as all the other evidence in the case, including that for the claimants, wholly failed to show that there was usury in such instrument. We conclude that the action of the court in directing a verdict for the plaintiff in execution was not, for any reason assigned, erroneous.
Judgment affirmed.
