Hall, Presiding Judge.

One defendant in a negligence action appeals from the judgment. The sole issue on this appeal is the order of argument which was set by the court as follows: plaintiff’s counsel No. 1; co-defendant’s counsel No. 1; appellant’s counsel; co-defendant’s counsel No. 2; plaintiff’s counsel No. 2. The court’s ruling complies with all the limitations on its discretion in this matter. Plaintiff received opening and concluding arguments; no more than two counsel per side were permitted to argue; and only one was heard in conclusion. See Code § 24-3320. It was within the court’s discretion to allow o-defendant’s two counsel to argue before and after ap *542 pellant’s. Hines v. Donaldson, 193 Ga. 783 (20 SE2d 134); Gunnells v. Cotton States Mut. Ins.
