49 Ga. App. 378 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1934
1. The motion to dismiss the bill of exceptions is without merit, and is denied.
2. “‘Under the provisions of the ■workmen’s compensation act, the findings of fact by the industrial commission are final and conclusive.’ American Mutual Liability Ins. Co. v. Brock, 165 Ga. 771 (1 b) (142 S. E. 101). ‘The finding of that body [the industrial commission] can not be reviewed in the superior court, if there is evidence to support its finding. Such finding can not be reviewed in the appellate court. The finality of a finding of the industrial commission upon the facts of a case is conclusive and binding upon all courts.’ Maryland Casualty Co. v. England, 160 Ga. 810, 812 (129 S. E. 75); Georgia Casualty Co. v. Martin, 157 Ga. 909 (122 S. E. 881); Ocean Accident &c. Cor. v. Council, 35 Ga. App. 632 (2) (134 S. E. 331).” Montgomery v. Maryland Casualty Co., 169 Ga. 746 (151 S. E. 363).

4. This court not being satisfied that the writ of error was prosecuted for the purpose of delay, the request of the defendant in error that damages be awarded her is denied.
Judgment affirmed.
