Cook v. Rome Railway & Light Co.
17 Ga. App. 665 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1916
1. The court did not err in disallowing the amendment to the petition.
2. A plea that the plaintiff’s cause of action is barred by the statute of limitations is a plea in bar, and not a dilatory plea. The court erred in disallowing the amendment setting up that the plaintiff’s action was barred by the statute of limitations. Savannah, Florida & Western Ry. Co. v. Watson, 86 Ga. 795 (13 S. E. 156).
3. The court erred in directing a verdict.
