20 Ga. App. 347 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1917
Where there is a motion for a new trial and no error of law has been committed, and only questions of fact are involved, “the presiding judge may exercise a sound discretion in granting or refusing a new trial.” Civil Code (1910), § 6087. But this court has no such discretion. Where no error of law has been committed, the court can not interfere unless the trial judge has abused the discretion given him by the law. Where the jury has passed upon a question of fact, and this only is involved, it is the fixed policy of this court not to interfere
Judgment affirmed.
