Glass v. Brittain Bros.
21 Ga. App. 634 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1918
Where it is alleged in a suit for damages for malicious prosecution that the prosecution was instituted by the agent of the defendant, it must be proved that the agent was at that time acting within the scope of his employment or at the direction or command of his principal. The plaintiff having failed to prove his case as laid in his petition, the court did not commit error in granting a nonsuit.
Judgment affirmed.
