122 Ga. 277 | Ga. | 1905
The suit was brought in the city court of Atlanta, on a note for $100 principal and 10 per cent attorney’s fees. The defendant insists, that as by statute (Acts 1900, p.- 53, Yan Epps’ Code Supp. § 6185) obligations to pay such fees are void, no complete cause of action therefor was set out on the day when the petition was filed. He therefore claims that as the suit was only for $100, it was within the jurisdiction of the justice’s court, and therefore without the jurisdiction of the city court of Atlanta. Acts 1894, p. 209.
Judgment affirmed.
